-Can you talk about it or is it not nice to talk about?
-If it's possible, I don't want to talk about that.

-No problem.
-I hope I don't make you uncomfortable.

-Yes.
-And I was very young. I was 17 when I went into the army. But now I think it was not the best way.
-Really? You would do it different?
-Yes, because my hobby was to read all about shells, seashells, conchologist. It was my dream to become a conchologist.

-In Saint Petersburg. You can see there seashells.
