Hi Elena,

I hope you're doing well.  I deleted your original message that went to
the whole list, but I think you were asking about "Russian for
Travelers" materials.  I don't know of anything in particular because I
haven't actually looked into this for a long time.  Maybe some of the
books like "Russian in 10 Minutes a Day" would be good.  There's also a
book (the title escapes me) which (at least recently) was used in the
Intro Russian classes at Middlebury College that might be useful.  We
used to have one book in our department which I'll check on tomorrow.

You might mention to your travelers that the travel guides published by
DK Publishing (formerly known as Eyewitness Travel Guides) for Moscow
and St. Petersburg are by far the best travel guides.  They contain
some Russian phrases in the back, along with great photos, pictures of
foods and drinks, wonderful maps, etc.

Cheers,
Larry
