I believe it will allow me to increase my language proficiency and my understanding of the Russian-speaking world (especially from the unique perspective of a post-Soviet state), as well as further my experience with cultural communication, exchanging ideas, and engaging with people from different cultures and backgrounds, which is a vital skill for any field of study.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>E-mail: bstockra@nd.eduLanguage:&nbsp;RussianLocation of Study: Batumi, GeorgiaProgram of Study: Batumi: Russian as a Second Language, SRASSponsors:&nbsp;The Nanovic Institute for European Studies View Bridget&#8217;s Blog If, then, I were asked for the most important advice I could give, that which I considered to be the most useful to the men of our century, I should simply say: &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/sites.nd.edu\/sla2022\/authors\/bridget-stockrahm\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Bridget Stockrahm<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3874,"featured_media":0,"parent":91,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-995","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.nd.edu\/sla2022\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/995","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.nd.edu\/sla2022\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.nd.edu\/sla2022\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.nd.edu\/sla2022\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3874"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.nd.edu\/sla2022\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=995"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/sites.nd.edu\/sla2022\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/995\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2012,"href":"https:\/\/sites.nd.edu\/sla2022\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/995\/revisions\/2012"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.nd.edu\/sla2022\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/91"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.nd.edu\/sla2022\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=995"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
