Wow Malik, that airport looks massive. Hopefully i can find my way around in there. For some reason i thought the people in Moscow would be fluent in english, but i'll take your word for it and try my best to brush up on the russian skills in case i need to ask for directions to my terminal or something. It's funny that you mentioned how a large number of Russians look angry, mean, and non-talkative, because me and Dinara were just talking on the phone about this very thing. She was telling me not to be alarmed if they don't smile, and if they seem to be unfriendly. They reserve the smiles for the people that they know.

I guess the staring has to be expected, seeing as though i'm not only black, but an american as well.

Thanks for all the advice though Malik. Webmaster sent me his contact information, and it would be good to have yours too. You're a black american, and you've been there, so i'm certain that i'm gonna be coming to you if i ever need some advice or pointers.;)

oh I'm sure there are many english speaking people in the airport! I guess all the stuff working there speak english. And if you'll need some help, you'll get it, dont worry! and you know my number! Just in the case, if nobody will understand you (I dont think it happens though), i'll talk to them myself!
 
SIM card

Bryant,don't forget to get a SIM card that can give you good rates to call DI in Russia. To be held hostage to a payphone is no joke.
 
Great mix

L,Oz has a variety of women of different colors,along with Euro women,the others from Eastern and Mediterranean countries too love the brothers from the US Navy and expats.

Oh ok I understand, sort of. I can understand that concern.

In Australia it does not work that way at all, and I can't imagine the States being that different in such a respect.. then again, your medical system is pretty crazy compared to ours so maybe it's along those lines.

Here, you purchase a policy that becomes valid from the day you buy it (eg if you hurt yourself and cant travel, tour or flight is cancelled) and finishes the day you get back. The cost of the policy is calcuated according to how long you will be away for, and that's it. Travel insurance also includes medical.

I'm going to Africa soon, and have the most comprehensive cover available. We have year long plans too but mine expired when I was home for a little while. Africa and the States are the most expensive to purchase for). It cost me just 285 AU (thats 236 US) for 3.5 weeks.

It covers me for everything you can think of like
- Unlimited medical
- 3,000,000 AU personal indemnity insurance in case I get myself on the wrong side of the law, lol
- Lost baggage, cancelled flights, an amount of cash, etc etc etc.

Do you have a similar system?

Hate to freak you out, but last time I was in Russia I saw a racially motivated beating on a black guy.

You're probably right about the plans being the same...only being valid for as long as i'm away. This is my first time traveling abroad, so there is still a bunch of stuff that i'm learning on the fly. There's only a few short months left before i take off, so i'm glad that you're all helping me with this important info.;)

And don't worry, i'm not freaked out by the racially motivated beating. I understand that something like that could occur at any given moment in time. I have a good feeling that i'll be safe, and of course, i'm hoping that nothing crazy like that happens to me lol.

B I will ask the webmaster to forward my e-mail address to you...

While a large number of Russians speak English most don't. At Domodedovo if you need assistance just look for the information desk in the main terminal there's usually a few folks there who speak English.

Yep, very true Lucifer. The original plan was for her to come and be with me in the summer of 09', but we've been waiting too long to see each other as it is, so i made up my mind to just bite the bullet and go be with her first.:cool:

lol, that's what I had to do in Kiev, the lady in the train station didn't understand me and laughed actually. But the cop that asked for my papers spoke English...

In the EE the chances of you finding non-service people that don't speak English is pretty good, but in all service sector jobs especially in touristy areas all have English speakers since most of Eastern Europe is Visa-free to Europeans and Americans/Canadians, save for Russia but when tensions go down who knows, but I know that Russia doesn't want a flood of its own people moving to west and lifting visa requirements on both sides would open that can of worms.

But English is taut in school, its just most tend not to -

a) Pay attention in class, the same way you didn't pay much attention in Spanish class, or at least I didn't, got a D and barely remember anything..

b) Lack of practice, when your momma and pappa speak Russian all day, everyday and so do your friends, nobody to speak English too which has given rise to using Skype, ICQ and other social outlets to find people to speak English with.

You'll find that most Russians in DI's age bracket usually do speak English in varying degrees.
