Hello guys! How are all you doing these days? Hope everything cool! As I promised earlier I'm going to blog the second part of 'Tips for Visitors to Russia by real Russian'. Here we go!!!
1. If someone invited you in their house, it'd be better to bring some presents with you - flowers, sweets, cakes and so on.
2. In a flat or house you've to take your shoes off and wear only slippers. Don't be surprised if you find many slippers near the doorstep inside or outside doesn't matter!!!
3) If you want to visit church and if you are woman you need to cover your hair and in some places it's impossible to enter if you are in mini-skirt(;-))))) or shorts!!!
4) In Russian subways (tubes) you'll buy ticket and it doesn't depend on how far you travel - the price for one ticket remain the same, it doesn't matter whether you want to get the next station or the last station on that line!!! (But be careful about train because it's opposite)
5) In some towns there are still such markets and shops where you need to pay first and then with the bill (receipt) go the salespeople to get your desired things!!! Notes: So don't be upset if you get the wrong thing!!!
6) Public Toilets (WC) is really very dangerous place, better use WC in MacDonald s or other cafe if it's possible. Usually WC are paid ( MacDonald s one is definitely free as most of you know that)!!!
7) Don't forget to take your adapter (esp for Brits) - in Russia it's 220V!!!
8) In Moscow you can drink tap water after boiling but in other cities it's better to use bottle (mineral) water.
9) Although you're are visiting Russia in warm (hot summer) better to take warm clothes. It could be useful too...!!!
10) Russian people don't smile often on the streets and subway. But it doesn't mean that they are angry and sad, simply it's normal behavior. It's rude mask for self-defense! (I really don't understand this and why???
That's all for today guys! See you again with another tips for all potential visitors to Russia!!!
