    What are you a masochist? There's **** all jobs in Russia, even for Russians (so why would they hire some1 who doesn't speak) and you would get paid **** all. Unless you're really into freezing your nuts off while getting the crap beaten out of you, I'd give it a miss.

    I would appreciate that WWW .

    Blitzkrieger
    Do you think ALL of russia is poverty stricken ?
    Well you obviously do , but my point being it isnt all that bad their in places. but my reason for going isnt woman related or any other seedy thing.

    I have russian friends who have lived with me for 4+ years while they studied here , and after hearing so much about all the places there, I thought it would be nice to go work their for a while and get to see some of them in first hand.

    anyway. Thanks again WWW . if you can find that. I have people asking here too , but I thought this might get more recent or relevant sites. My friends were from a remote part of russia so they cant really be much help apart from translating for me.

    lol, what's seedy about liking Russian women? Of course it's not all poverty stricken, but you hear about so many people from Russia and the former USSR flocking west to find any kind of work, it's hard to imagine going the other way. I've heard of a guy with a masters in physics mopping floors in Mallow because he gets paid way more than he does back home. When mopping floors in Mallow is a sweet job you have to wonder......

    I hope you have a good time there, but tbh, I don't think you will.


    (btw, I hope you're not black. I've heard there's real hostility towards black people in Russia.)

    Sorry Blitzkrieger , I thought you menat the other kind of russian women I have been getting grief about aka " Ladies of the night ;) "

    Maybe it wont be all glitter and gold but from what ive seen it does like , it has alot to offer in terms of Sightseeing , visiting cool places etc and the russians if meet all seem so warm and friendly.
    Im not naive or anything tho. if its s**t ill just catch a plane straight out and travail somewhere else..

    Atm Im just at that point in my life again where Ive nothing holding me back < no gf , wife , no morgage yet etc > So I just like to go to diff places and check em out. See new stuff etc
    When mopping floors in Mallow is a sweet job you have to wonder......

    Aye you would :)

    tbh infact I work in Aslaka atm , Im so bored , nerf RL !

    Link Here

    The paper copy has some jobs and English language companies which may be worth contacting. I think the web version has classifieds as well.

    I was in Moscow a few weeks ago - as per usual, ignore any of the urban myths you hear from people who haven't been there. It's an amazing city, the people are v. friendly, the women are gorgeous (my wife was with me so my appreciation was purely aesthetic :D ) and while there is poverty there's a lot of money around as well.

    One thing - the police are scary and visas etc. can be a real pain (both to get and then to extend or even keep sometimes) plus there are a load of dodgy types about, so be carefull.

    C.
