In our lives, overflowing with communication on the Internet, mobile phones, and social networks, real meetings play an important role.

In order to hear these and other sounds, you don’t have to be on the coast at the water’s edge. It is enough to put a large twisted shell to your ear and hear the sound of the surf. Thanks to the spiral-shaped shells of mollusks, the melodies of the waves reach us across thousands of kilometers and warm us in the winter cold.

As a result of the Yalta Conference in 1945, the leaders of the USSR, Great Britain and the USA decided that the capital of Germany would be divided into four occupation parts.
