visit russia

I am from there and miss it…no money though

Knowing Russian I wan’t to get to know the country and people.

for some days

There was a show on in the UK ski Sunday and they went to Russia it looked amazing.

Russia is a mysterious and fascinating place. To avoid disillusionment, please, judge the Russians by their own criteria, not by ours. I only learned this after leaving, and wondering,”why is everyone so serious? Why does noone smile?” Here is a Russian proverb which afforded me insight… ‘Only a fool smiles all the time…” It’s not Europe, or America. Have no preconceeved notions, or expectations that they should behave or live as we do, or want them to .It’s their country. Do it their way, even if it seems odd or repellent to us. They can be very warm, and are fascinating people, with wonderful dignity

When you are a child they tell you hell is hot. They lied to you… Hell is driving in a car from moscow to tomsk in siberia. Okay have you ever driven through montana or south dakota… well think of this for 3000 miles… except snow swept landscapes with white birch trees. Oh yes where the Tartars and Bashkirs live it hard to find a bathroom.

I’ve lived in Russia until I was 7…and um, it’s ok. Moscow and St. Petersburg are most worthy of seeing! I miss Russia!!!

Would just really like to see it :)

Russia is a mix of west and east. Great History. I know that the trip would be great and very fulfilling.

i need to do this if i’ll have to make a living on its language
and the country is really full of beauty… and sadness
