Предпочитам да имам труден живот в България, отколкото лесен в Англия, казва новият филибелия

Островитянинът: Пловдив е „Любов от пръв поглед”, София е „Приятелят ми умря малко!”

 

Скот Мартин Смит е герой номер две от нашата поредица за чужденци в Пловдив. На 24 от Гримсби, Северна Англия. Учил е Биохимия и Генетика в Нотингамския университет и преди три години дори не е очаквал животът му да се преобърне така.


През юни 2010 майка му и приятелят й си купуват къща в Гела, след като много пъти са идвали тук само на почивка. Скот живее при един свой приятел в Англия. Учи и в продължение на година се опитва да си намери работа, с което удря на камък. Накрая откликва на поредната покана от страна на майка му и юни месец 2011 пристигат в Пловдив. Страхът, който преживява преди пътуването, още си личи по лицето му. Вярва, че е имало знаци, които са му казвали да си стои в Гримсби и да не мърда от там. По принцип не е фен на телевизията, но в деня преди полета му по новините са давали за две хеликоптерни и една самолетна катарстрофа както и за потънала руска лодка в Черно море. Пристигайки в Гела го очаква строеж в действие. Няма прозорци, няма топлина  и това е повлияло на първоначалното му впечатление от България като цяло. Това обаче бързо се променя. Отива на фестивала в Гела, където се запознава с изключително много и всякакви хора. От същия ден може да гледате кадри на „Изгубени в България” с него пред камерата, макар че дори не е знаел кой или за какво го интервюира.

Септември същата година се озовава на Беглика фест. Пътят му е осеян с преживявания. Тръгват на стоп със своя приятел Тим. В продължение на часове никой не ги взима, докато накрая не ги качва свещеникът на село Гела. Помага им с пътя до някъде и двамата ни герои се озовават пак с вдигнат палец. Мъж с дъщеря си спира, но отказва да качи Скот, тъй като заради насъбрания тен го мисли за турчин и се налага да си разменят паспортите за доказателство, че е англичанин. Черешката на това пътуване е последната кола с напушен шофьор. Скот седи на задната седалка, а неговият приятел на предната. Малко преди Беглика колата спира в средата на планината, далеч от всякакви хора, шофьорът изкарва грамаден нож от жабката на колата и го подава на Тим. В този момент двамата вече си представят смъртта. Същият странен индивид излиза от колата, отива към багажника, подава на момчетата по една бира и започва да свири на флейта в продължение на половин час. Осъзнават, че човекът е напушен и реално иска просто да им покаже колко хубав нож има и колко хубаво свири на флейта, но това не може да промени първоначалния кошм
Изкарват феста в Беглика и техен приятел им казва, че по-лесно ще хванат стоп от Пловдив. Опитват се да намерят центъра в продължение на 4 часа , но така и не успяват. Главна им цел  била artnewscafe. Набивали крак само на метри от заведението, но просто не и пред него. Вече знаейки улиците, разказва как са вървели по Руски, Вазов, Гладстон, но до Главната така и не се добрали. Става късно и си хващат автобус до Асеновград, където в пет следобед пак са с вдигнати палци. Стигат Гела чак в 4 сутринта.

Това странно пътуване обаче отваря сетивата на Скот за България. Започва да обикаля- Девин, Смолян, Костенец и прочие. Като цел са му традиционни български градове, запазили стария дух в себе си. Докато един ноемврийски ден майка му не казва, че има три билета за Англия – за нея, за приятеля й и за Скот. Може и да не е имал къде да живее, как да се издържа или да води нормален живот, той отказва. Решен, че иска да живее тук поне година –две, започва търсенето на истински живот. Намира си работа в Пампорово за зимата, че да може пък пролет и лято да пътува. Взима часове по български в Смолян и наистина си представя как просто ще събира житейски опит известно време. Неща, които хората правят в началото на двайсетте си години, общо взето.

Озовава се в Пловдив, отново. Подава си документите за учител по практически английски и моментално са му отвърнали – Започваш във вторник! Намира си квартира, но все още не приема престоя си в България насериозно, тъй като всичко, което притежава, се побира в една раница. В училище е мразел английския, едвам е успял да го мине, но работата му с децата променя това. Все пак говори за любимите си компютърни игри с тях!


За себе си казва, че обича три града – Любляна, Нотингам и Пловдив. Не особено големи градове, но с изключителен живот и характер. Една плетеница от възможността да си почиваш, но и истински да живееш. Казва, че хората в Англия не правят нищо през уикенда, докато българинът ще отиде на някое непознато място и ще си събира спомени в джобчето. За три години тук е видял повече места, отколкото в родината си за 20. Обожава Стария град и го описва като Стоун Хейндж на майните, само където в Англия просто трупат камъни, а ние си имаме цял град. До такава степен е влюбен в българските традиции и празници, че даже целогодишно може да видите мартеница на ръката му. Казва, че в Англия си имат само Палачинки ден, което реално е всеки ден в България. Допълва, че на Втори юни, щом завие сирената, можеш да разбереш кой е турист и кой не е.

„Обичам айляка!” възкликва с усмивка и казва, че това е причината да харесва Пловдив. Английската му версия била Хакуна Матата. Първоначално си мисли, че всички тук се карат един с друг, но после разбира, че просто душата на българина е емоционална и ние така си говорим.  Запознал се с италианки, които му казали, че дори пицата тук била по- хубава от оригиналната. „Имате неща като Альоша. Имате град на седем тепета,а ги правите на път и МОЛ?” вдига рамене в недоумение и нескрито възмущение Скот.


За опита му с другите градове веднага се сеща за едни свои 4 дни в София. Отива да изпрати  тогавашната си приятелка на летището и си намира къде да спи чрез сайта на Couchsurfing. По пътя натам си губи палтото, а е средата на декември. Вътре е бил тефтерът му с всички номера, които е записвал някога. Съвсем иронично в другия джоб била книгата „Робинзон Крузо”. Домакинът му обаче изпитва странна привлеченост към него. С кафето сутринта му предлага и кърпички , в случай че иска да отпусне напрежението (можете да се сетите как без да ви го описваме). Не било проблем, тъй като сам домакинът му освободил напрежението по-рано, което побърква Скот, тъй като те спели в една стая. Сяда веднага на компютъра, за да намери ново място за спане и при зареждането на браузъра попада на доста нестандартно порно, което вече съвсем го вкарва във филма. Цял ден се преструва, че нищо не се е случило, а вечерта даже излизат заедно. Новият му приятел го пришпорва да се прибират по-бързо, докато накрая не се прибира сам и не изпраща смс на Скот малко след полунощ „Не се връщай. Утре ела да си вземеш нещата. От г-н Никой”. Сутринта му отнема час блъскане по вратата да получи багажа си, от който междувременно липсват малко пари, химикалки и чифт  бельо. Същата вечер остава паметна за живота му. Отиват с един негов приятел, по прякор Батман(французин) в Строежа. Проблемът бил, че другарят му е глътнал болкоуспокояващи- нещо, което Скот не е знаел. Този коктейл от хапчета и алкохол води до една за кого незабравима, за кого незапомнена нощ. От тук ви предоставям с точни думи какво Скот ми разказа:

  1. Всичко се случи за час. Батман седна на входа на една сграда и охранителите го помолиха да си тръгне. Почти се стигна до бой, но успях да го спася.
  2. Търсехме си ирландски пъб, но си нямахме никаква идея къде се намира. Спряхме едни младежи да ни упътят. Батман не се съгласи с тях и започна бой.
  3. Вече бяхме близо до крайната ни точка, но все пак решихме да питаме и другиго за посоката. Казаха ни, че барът е затворен, а Батман не се съгласи и започна нов бой.
  4. Накрая стигнахме до айриш пъба. Беше затоврен! (Батман е идиот! Моля те, уточни го!)
  5. Бродихме по улиците, киснахме по пиейки. Всеки от нас си беше завлядял различната страна на булеварда. Видях полицаи и реших, че ще е добра идея да извикам французина при себе си. Той прекоси улицата, пързулна се върху едната кола и се приземи на три метра от органите на реда. Опита се и с тях да се сбие, за щастие неуспешно. Претърсиха ни, а само в чантата на Батман бяха налични 6 стъкларки от бира и 3 PVC, отделно и наполовина пълна бутилка с водка. Намериха и рецептата му за болкоуспокояващите и проявиха някакво разбиране, но все пак се опитаха да измъкнат 200 лева от двама туристи. Неуспешно- за щастие.
  6. Имахме нужда от малко почивка и се запътихме към близкия парк. Две момчета ни спряха да питат дали знаем къде продават цигари и направо им предложих от моите. Седнахме на една пейка. Единият тип май ме беше харесал, но това нямаше значение, защото Батман беше умрял. Нямаше пулс, не дишаше и едвам успях да го съживя. В същия момент единият от новите ни познати ми каза да си подам ръката. Машинално я изпънах пред него, а той постави пистолет в нея. Обясняваше ми как е подарък от кралицата на Англия и не бил зареден. Това второто се оказа грешно, след като го взе, огледа го и възкликна „А, явно е!”
  7. Батман не се движеше и не дишаше. Около 5 минути се опитвах да го върна към живот. Поне си бяхме намерили причина да си тръгнем – „Приятелят ми умря малко!”. Двете момчета ни поканиха на парти и казаха да решаваме бързо, защото шофьорът им щял да дойде скоро да ги вземе. Моментално им отказах, пък и за какъв шофьор говореше? Мислех, че си е извикал такси, но близо до нас спря лимузина и взе едното момче. Другият остана да ми помогне да заведем Батман до един от баровете, където бяхме и вече се бяхме сдобили със забрана да влизаме вътре. Управителят разбра, че е била тежка вечер изпълнена с емоции и малко смърт и ни позволи да поспим на масите.
  8. Събудих се от крещенето на Батман – СТАВАЙ! Нека да пием! Оказа се, че не помни почти нищо от вечерта и какво по-точно се е случило.


Уж мрази израза „Любов от пръв поглед”, но по точно този начин описва връзката си с Пловдив. Първата му мисъл е да остане година-две, но сега си представя целия живот тук. Дори е обмислял и темата за това дали децата му трябва да учат в българско училище, тъй като не харесва българските учители и системата ни. Не разбира защо всички тръгват към Англия и го описва като кръговрат: „Хората тръгват, защото няма работа. Няма работа, защото хората си тръгват”. Твърдо убеден е, че лютеницата трябва да бъде националната ни храна. По време на пътешествията си това е било единственото, което е ядял – хляб с лютеница. Уважава традицията за домашно производство на абсолютно всичко, за което може да се сетите. Единствено, трудно и малко болезнено е стигнал до осъзнаването, че ако ти предложат – не е учтиво да откажеш! „Аз съм единственият англичанин, който мрази ракия”, възкликва докато обяснява как е опитал гроздовата на всяко едно българско семейство, на което е гостувал.

„Всички искат да си тръгнат, заради високите заплати, но не разбират, че където и да отидат – стандартът също е по-висок. Хората в Англия са учтиви, но не мили. Тук е точно обратното! Предпочитам да имам труден живот в България, отколкото лесен в Англия!”

However, the production of new aluminum from raw materials is energy-intensive and has a significant environmental impact. Recycling aluminum scrap helps reduce the energy and resources needed for new production, therefore mitigating these negative effects. Aluminum scrap, also known as scrap aluminum or aluminum scrap metal, refers to used or discarded aluminum items such as cans, foils, car parts, construction materials, and more. These items, if not properly managed, can end up in landfills, contributing to pollution and wasting valuable resources. However, through aluminum scrap recycling, these materials can be recovered, processed, and transformed into new aluminum products. The process of aluminum scrap recycling typically involves the collection, sorting, shredding, and melting of the scrap metal. Aluminum scrap can be sourced from various places, including households, industries, construction sites, and automotive developments. Collection centers and recycling facilities, such as aluminum scrap yards, are responsible for obtaining and sorting the scrap based on its grade, ensuring that only clean aluminum scrap is used for recycling. Once the aluminum scrap is sorted, it undergoes a shredding process to reduce its size, making it easier to handle and melt. Shredding also helps remove any impurities or non-aluminum materials attached to the scrap. After shredding, the scrap is melted in a furnace, where it is transformed into liquid aluminum ready for further processing. One important factor to consider in aluminum scrap recycling is the fluctuating aluminum scrap price. The price of aluminum scrap is determined by various factors, including the global supply and demand for aluminum, market conditions, and the quality and quantity of the scrap. Different grades of aluminum scrap also fetch different prices, with clean aluminum scrap commanding a higher price due to its easier recyclability and higher purity.

    Aluminum Scrap Recycling: Maximizing Environmental Benefits and Economic Returns

    Aluminum has become an integral part of our modern lives due to its lightweight, durability, and versatility. However, like any other metal, aluminum also has a finite supply. To meet the growing demand for aluminum, recycling has become an essential practice. Aluminum scrap recycling plays a crucial role in conserving natural resources, reducing energy consumption, and minimizing environmental impacts associated with the extraction and production of primary aluminum. Aluminum scrap recycling refers to the process of collecting, sorting, processing, and reusing aluminum scrap materials. These materials can include various forms of aluminum waste, such as used beverage cans, industrial scrap, construction waste, and automotive parts. By diverting aluminum scrap from landfills and melting it down for reuse, the energy-intensive process of mining and refining bauxite ore, from which primary aluminum is derived, can be avoided. One of the major benefits of aluminum scrap recycling is the conservation of natural resources. Aluminum is not naturally abundant but rather derived from bauxite, a mineral that requires extensive mining operations. By recycling aluminum scrap, the need for mining and the associated environmental degradation can be significantly reduced. Estimates suggest that recycling one ton of aluminum can save up to five tons of bauxite ore. Another advantage of aluminum scrap recycling is the substantial energy savings it offers. Primary aluminum production requires a significant amount of energy, accounting for approximately 1% of global electricity consumption. However, recycling aluminum scrap consumes only 5% of the energy required for primary production. This energy saving is derived from the fact that recycling aluminum involves melting and re-melting the metal, which requires far less energy compared to extracting aluminum from bauxite. The recycling of aluminum scrap also contributes to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. The production of primary aluminum is associated with carbon dioxide emissions, resulting from the energy-intensive nature of the process. By recycling aluminum scrap, these emissions can be cut by over 90%. This reduction significantly helps in combating climate change and mitigating its adverse impacts. The economic benefits of aluminum scrap recycling should not be overlooked either. The aluminum scrap market is quite robust, with demand for recycled aluminum constantly increasing. Aluminum scrap prices are influenced by various factors, such as the overall demand and supply dynamics, global market conditions, and the quality of the scrap material. Aluminum alloy scrap, clean aluminum scrap, and other specialized types of aluminum scrap may have different market prices depending on their specific characteristics. Scrap metal recycling prices, including aluminum, fluctuate due to market conditions and recycling industry trends. To maximize the economic returns from aluminum scrap recycling, it is essential to properly sort and clean the scrap material. Taking the scrap to an aluminum scrap yard ensures that it is properly evaluated and processed before being sent to aluminum smelters or secondary aluminum producers. In conclusion, aluminum scrap recycling is an integral component of sustainable resource management. By recycling aluminum scrap, we can conserve natural resources, reduce energy consumption, and minimize greenhouse gas emissions. Additionally, the economic benefits derived from aluminum recycling contribute to a circular economy, where materials are reused and waste is minimized.

After sorting, the aluminum scrap is cleaned to remove any contaminants such as plastic or rubber. The cleaning process may involve shredding or melting the aluminum scrap to separate it from any foreign materials. Once cleaned, the aluminum scrap is then melted down and processed into aluminum ingots or other forms for further use. The global aluminum scrap market is influenced by several factors, including supply and demand dynamics, imports and exports, and market prices. The price of scrap aluminum can fluctuate based on factors such as market conditions, global demand for aluminum, and the quality and purity of the aluminum scrap. It is important for recyclers or consumers of aluminum scrap to stay informed about current scrap metal recycling prices and aluminum scrap price trends. Recycling aluminum scrap offers numerous benefits. Firstly, it conserves natural resources, as recycling aluminum requires significantly less energy compared to producing aluminum from raw materials. Recycling one ton of aluminum saves about four tons of bauxite ore and 14,000 kWh of electricity. Moreover, aluminum recycling reduces greenhouse gas emissions, as the recycling process emits only about 5% of the CO2 emissions generated in primary aluminum production. Additionally, recycling aluminum scrap helps in reducing landfill waste. By diverting scrap aluminum from landfills, valuable space is conserved, and the environmental impact associated with landfilling is minimized. Recycling also reduces the need for extracting and processing raw materials, which can have negative consequences such as deforestation, habitat destruction, and soil erosion. Furthermore, the recycling industry provides employment opportunities and contributes to local economies. Recycling facilities, aluminum scrap yards, and associated businesses create jobs across various stages of the recycling process, including collection, sorting, processing, and distribution. To encourage aluminum scrap recycling, government regulations, incentives, and awareness campaigns have been implemented in many countries. These aim to promote responsible waste management, increase recycling rates, and support the growth of the recycling industry

    Aluminum Scrap Recycling: An Essential Contribution to a Sustainable Future

    In recent years, we have witnessed a growing global concern for the environment and a strong push towards sustainable practices. As a result, industries are increasingly turning to recycling as a means of minimizing waste and conserving valuable resources. One such industry at the forefront of this movement is aluminum scrap recycling. Aluminum scrap recycling involves the collection, processing, and reuse of aluminum scrap materials. This process not only helps in reducing the need for primary aluminum production but also conserves energy and reduces greenhouse gas emissions. Furthermore, the recycling of aluminum scrap is economically beneficial, as it provides a cost-effective way of obtaining aluminum for various industries. The aluminum recycling process begins with the collection of aluminum scrap from various sources, such as manufacturing plants, construction sites, and even households. This scrap can be categorized into different types, including clean aluminum scrap and aluminum alloy scrap. Clean aluminum scrap refers to uncontaminated aluminum waste, while aluminum alloy scrap consists of aluminum mixed with other metals. Once collected, the aluminum scrap is sorted and processed to remove any impurities and contaminants. This step is crucial in ensuring the quality of the recycled aluminum. The processed scrap is then melted down in a furnace, where it is heated to high temperatures until it reaches its liquid form. The molten aluminum is then cast into ingots or other forms suited for the specific application. One of the key factors that drive aluminum scrap recycling is the fluctuating price of aluminum. The market demand for aluminum, coupled with factors like energy costs, availability of raw materials, and global economic conditions, determines the price of aluminum scrap. Scrap dealers and aluminum alloy yards play a vital role in establishing prices based on these market dynamics. Scrap metal recycling prices, including aluminum scrap, are subject to change due to a variety of factors. It is prudent for recyclers and buyers to stay updated with current pricing trends to make informed decisions. Additionally, the cleanliness and quality of the aluminum scrap significantly impact its price. Clean aluminum scrap, free of any impurities or mixed metals, often commands a higher price due to its ease of processing. Understanding the value of aluminum scrap recycling extends beyond the monetary benefits. By diverting aluminum scrap from landfills and reducing the need for primary aluminum extraction, this process helps minimize environmental impact. Aluminum production consumes a significant amount of energy and emits greenhouse gases, making the recycling of aluminum scrap a much more sustainable alternative. Moreover, the recycling of aluminum scrap conserves natural resources. Aluminum is derived from bauxite ore, which is a finite resource. Therefore, the more aluminum scrap that can be recycled effectively, the greater the preservation of these valuable resources. Additionally, recycling aluminum requires significantly less energy compared to primary aluminum production, resulting in a considerable reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. To facilitate efficient aluminum scrap recycling, governments, businesses, and individuals must collaborate to establish comprehensive recycling programs. Implementing proper collection and sorting systems, educating the public about the benefits of recycling, and supporting research and development efforts are crucial for a successful recycling industry. In conclusion, aluminum scrap recycling has emerged as a valuable process that delivers both economic and environmental benefits. By recycling aluminum scrap, we minimize waste, conserve energy, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and protect finite resources. As the demand for aluminum continues to grow, embracing recycling practices will be instrumental in shaping a sustainable and prosperous future
