Abstract
After obtaining my school-leaving certificate I left for England. I was 15 years old. First I worked at a farm in Canterbury. Then at a wine-seller’s in London. In our schools, going abroad is equivalent to your exams. But it is an exam and a school at the same time. One tests one’s culture by applying it to life2. In conclusion, it is a harder exam than yours, but at least one does not waste time on dead things.
