"35. 1) Besides 2) Nevertheless 3) On the contrary 4) Yet   Travelling in Russia    Russia is such a huge country with a wide variety of places, nationalities and cultures. 30_________, it’s not such an obvious travelling destination for its own residents. Ask a Russian where they’ve been for their vacation. Turkey, Egypt? Sometimes the answer can be Sochi.  31_________, there’s not many domestic places they can name.   32_________, Russia is the best country to choose for travelling. 33__________, one can choose the climate of their liking. Will it be Arctic Russia with its polar lights? 34__________ there is a stereotype that Russia is a country of eternal frost, you may find actual tropics and the seaside resorts in the south. 35__________, Russian people are really friendly and their hospitality is a role model. Believe me, the hosts will never let you leave the house without a festive meal and welcoming drinks!    My point is: do not let stereotypes mislead you. I was surprised, too, when I first visited Russia as part of my business trip. Now it’s a destination I advise all my friends to visit! 36_________ living on the opposite side of the globe, I feel like this richest country in the world has become my second home that is still calling me back."
