I work in
an office block in Saharova
street. Our office is on the 5th floor. I usually get to work by bus
#27. I get off near Stryiskiy park and go through the park to
Saharova street. I cross Striyska street
near traffic light and then keep
going down Saharova street. I walk past “Furshet” supermarket and in 3 minutes I’m at the
entrance door of our office block. I go
upstairs to the 5th floor because it is no elevator( lift) in the building.
I work till
6 o’clock. Usually I stay at work later, till 6:30 or 7 pm. But on Monday I have English class after work. So, I leave the
office at 6:05 or 6:10. I go down the stairs to the 1st
floor. Then I go down Saharova street to the corner with Knyagini Olgi street.
On my way down
the street I pass by the student
hostels. They are on my left. In
5 minutes I come to the corner of
Saharova-Kniagini Olgi streets. A small
wooden church is across the road. I cross Kniagini Olgi street near the tram
stop, turn left and go along this
street to “Nova Oselya” buildings.
