Ginda Basok and a freind
This photo of my mother with girlfriend Raja. My mum, Ginda Basok, was brought up in the Soviet times. I do not know,where she studied in childhood. Possibly, in her Father's house or may be in an elementary school. I know, that in 1924-1927 she studied at a rabfak. [Rabfak - school for adults]. Mum had good friends there and that friendship lasted many years. Before marriage Mum worked in a drugstore, helping the pharmacist. After marrying my father, she was a housefe.
