Hey /trv/

If you had the choice to visit either Russia or Sweden, what would you pick, and why?

My program only offers those two countries for studying abroad this summer, and both sound really fucking good. I really can't pick

They sound really good? Have you been anywhere near those shitholes? Russia is a grey dump infested with neo-nazis, drunks and corrupt officials. Sweden is basically Afghanistan 2.0.

It's funny because it's true.
Your attempt at sarcasm has failed.

If you are studying abroad and have a program to set up housing and meals, go to Russia. It will be more of an adventure even when your time is structured.

Sweden is OK but will not be much of an adventure. Maybe this sounds better to you?

Having visited Russia twice all I can say is you must be very masochistic to want to stay in the country for any extended period of time. Everything is a chore to do, and if you ever need to ask for help, be prepared to feel like the person helping you is doing a huge fucking favor if he/she isnt outright nasty to you. Russians are possibly the most distant, suspicious and self centered people.

Fucking Death to Spies!

Go to Sweden. Russia is full of corrupt officials and ugly women. Incredibly, it's also more expensive if you're in Moskva. Sweden is win. Hot girls, actual infastructure, better food, beaches (in summertime) no fucking radioactive shit, trash and lead paint everywhere.

Only to strangers. Quite the opposite is true for family and friends.

Go to Soviet Russia, it would be a much better experience IMO. In Sweden everyone speaks English and they all hate themselves and their country.

Since your studying abroad, Russia has a much more interesting history, better historical sites and architecture, and you'll be forced to learn the language since most people won't speak it (though that might be a bad thing if you're not planning on learning it).

You sound like a typical Amerifag tourist who goes to other countries, doesn't bother to learn so much as "hello" and "thank you" in the native tongue, and expects everyone to serve your important American speaking ass with a glowing smile on their face while you treat them like a fool in their own country for not knowing the worlds official language. That's the only way I can see someone getting the impression that you did.

Even speaking a little bit of Russian will make people much more friendly to you as a tourist, since it's rare that westerners speak it and it's such a difficult language to learn (compared to other European languages).

if I was presented with this choice I would pick Sweden. It looks richer, nicer and safer while Russia looks shady.

I think what he's saying is, "fucking THIS is correct". In the same way that /b/tards often say "this" in response to a comment with which they agree.

Close call, I'd need to know a lot more about you first. I would go with Russia but only because I'm obsessed with the place and soon going to learn Russian. Sweden is really awesome too, far superior in most ways but less interesting.

Younger generation Russian women are generally gorgeous. They also aren't infected with feminism so much.

Russia. Its fucking huge and there is plenty of abandoned industrial sites that were part of the soviet industrial complex that are nice to visit.
