The year 2024 has been declared the Year of the Family. Within the walls of the Volga Region University of Sport and Tourism, over the fifty-year history of its existence, many bright dynasties have formed, which we invite you to get acquainted with as part of the new rubric "Generations of the Volga Region". Today we will learn about the life of a young family of Zelenins.

Daria and Dmitry Zelenin met at the Volga Region University during their studies. Being masters of sport in swimming, they shared common interests and aspirations. After completing their studies, they stayed at the university to work as sports instructors at the Burevestnik swimming pool. Today they are raising their daughter together, enjoying their family life and helping people to make friends with swimming.

As part of a column on our Zen channel, they talked about what they love and value most in work, sport and life in general.
