He was inspired by the idea of traveling in space among the stars, the moon, and the planets. More than anything in the world Peter wanted to go somewhere out of his hometown and to travel, and every night he begged the universe to give him a chance to make his dreams come true and to let him become the greatest adventurer in the world and to visit all the countries. However, he came from the poor and he couldn’t afford himself even a trip to a neighboring state. But his big dream made him realize that his studies were the only option to achieve his goals. So, he put himself together and applied to the State University of Colorado to study journalism and the Spanish language. At the end of his studying at the University, Peter participated in a competition among seniors that required to retell the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence by heart, and suddenly he won it and got 100.000$ dollars from the President of the United States and two tickets to any European country by the Democrats to practice his journalism skills. For a moment, Peter became very famous for his success and even the NY Times mentioned him.

One day, when he was writing an article about the Crimean War, that took place during the Victorian Age, at the park, he met a beautiful young British woman, who was playing the guitar. The British lady glanced at him, and at that moment Peter realized, that he fell in love at the first sight. As it turned out later, the lady was extremely talented: she was studying the judiciary, and she had the Nobel Prize.
