Moscow and St. Petersburg for the non-Russian

[Jean Pacheco]

Alla,
I am sorry that you had such a bad experience in Moscow and St. Petersburg.
I do not speak Russian and I went by myself last summer.  I spent five great
weeks there, and even went backpacking and camping .  I
stayed in St. Petersburng for about a week.  At the train station there were
people carrying signs and it was possible for me to rent an apartment.  It
only cost me $7 a day and the apartment was clean, I had a stereo, colored
t.v, use of the kitchen, and use of the shower...(with hot water).  I found
the Russian people to be extemely helpful and liked every moment that I was
there.  This summer I am going back for five weeks, again by myself, and I
still do not speak Russian.  I am going to be teaching English in Siberia in
an international school for four weeks.
I am sorry that you had such a bad time in Russia, but the Russia I came to
know was wonderful.
Jean Pacheco
