Russia's a consumate shithole. Moscow is the biggest, most modern pile of shit in the country, and St. Petersburg is the pile of shit with a lot of pretty buildings and canals. Of the two, St. Petersburg was vastly preferred and cheaper.
>>53814 Seconding Achtung Baby...small for a city its size, but lots of fun. >>54075 Russian women dress like whores. As in, so fucking slutty and cheap that they'd be arrested for indecency walking around an average suburban shopping mall in America. The men dress like slobs, mostly ratty knock-offs, tracksuits, and hunter's camis. Dressing fashionably will make you stand out, but no one's gonna steal your clothes. >>54286 The more spanish you speak, the better. Otherwise, you could be mistaken for a Chechen, which would not be good. >>54289 What people fail to realize nowadays is that Russia is fairly safe nowadays, more so than the U.S. in the large cities. It's still a fucking awful shithole, mind you, but your biggest problem will be pickpockets. I'm a nigra and I've been to Russia a few times. The only "problems" I had were incessant staring, and people talking shit about me all the time while foolishly assuming I didn't speak any Russian.
In short: Russia's a shithole. The women are hot, but only want your money/greencards and imho, are lousy fucks for the effort (better than American, vastly inferior to French or Italian)
Russians are unbelievably fucking lazy. Service is absolute shit everywhere. By extension, feel free to not tip.
Always take gypsy cabs over regular, and never pay more than 2-300 rubles for any destination inside the city.
Also, Russia's a shithole. Don't drink the water.
