Moscow Day 3

... and to be with me. So we both just walked around Red Square, taking photos and enjoying the site. Then it was time to return to our hotel, which was a journey to find the Metro again and directions to catch the right train. Never the less, we finally made it back to the Hotel and we rested and watched the busy street from our 25th floor hotel suite. Tips: - Make sure you carry a photocopy of your passport, visa and immigration card (do not give out your ...

Overnight train to Moscow

... found out that it was also their first day together. He flew from his home in Cleveland, Ohio to meet her in person in Russia, after chatting online for a month. He spoke no Russian and she spoke a few words in English, and as they sat next to each other in silence it was painfully clear that there was no chemistry between them. Throughout the trip he made clumsy attempts at conversation and when she didn't ...

Moscow is good

... picked in somewhere in the south of Moscow (Krasnodar I heard them say) and sold by babushkas in plastic cups really cheaply (blueberries are my top favourite). Another thing that is helping the Moscow image in my eyes is that I learned to read and grew to understand most of what I need. I now take Russian lessons and make attempts to speak with people - it feels so much better. A real turning ...

... way to get around would take a much longer time than I have to spend. Lisa first warned me about the people. It's not that they are rude, they just lack our sensitivity. In the metro they act like children - they never say "excuse me," etc. and sneak past and in between slower people to get to the escalators or on the trains. Watching them really does remind me of small children who don't know about lines or ...

The most expensive city in the world

... some of the huge gothic skyscrapers which Stalin had put up in the soviet era and they really towered above all of the other building. I also went to see a massive statue of Peter the great, but was most impressed with The Cathedrial of Christ the Saviour. Didnt spend long in Red Square though as it is a place renowned for getting stopped by the police, who 'check' your passport to see if you have registered your visa ad then expect a bribe or you end up on a trip to the police ...

How i got there - evil train trip

... and storing our day to day items (knife,beer,fruits,timetable,camera...) .That reminded me: always keep your camera available,because the scenary changes quickly and you don't have a lot of time to dig it from your bag.Well,actually the scenary won't change but theres lots of nice buildings and **** to shoot. The life at the train was exactly what you can imagine.5 days of drinking,eating,chatting with other travellers and watching hours and hours of houses that looked abandoned.But ...

... naturally) but they were all students and this was the first time they were using their English so they were pretty excited to be making English friends. My name in Russian is "Catarina" which I liked the sound of :-) The next morning though our new Russian friends came looking for us...at 8am....to invite us to the restaurant cabin for more drinks and food and conversation. We managed to hold them off until about lunchtime and by then they had slowed down a bit and were ...

Last day in Moscow

After a nice, but expensive dinner at the Café Pushkin, Ho-Ki and I leisurely walked back to the Metropol and settled down for our last night in Moscow knowing full well that we were going to be homeless once again the following day. We awoke bright and early to give ourselves a head start in getting packed. Throwing open the curtains we were greeted with a steady downpour. Oh great, not only were we going to be homeless, we were going ...

March 26 On March 26, after a long day of driving half way across Russia Andrea and I went to our hotel and checked in. we asked where the best place to help little kids on the street would be and he suggested going and asking the "Arm the Homeless Coalition." Went to "Arm the Homeless Coalition" and the company could use our help. We first went to the eastern half of Tynda. There the company gave us what ...
