When I arrived in the USSR, I got a job in a factory working as a turner. I took part in various activities in the factory, such as the choir, and I sang by myself or with co-workers. In this photograph I am with my friend Viktor. I am singing and Viktor is playing the accordion. This photograph was taken in the factory courtyard where we worked in Kamensk Uralski.
