    Traveling has always been a great fun. And when this travel is beyond countries and to the beautiful destinations like Russia, expressions and words seems limited. It turn an abstract feeling that is hard to describe just can be felt around.


    Being in the travel journalism since last 5 years, I often get a chance to interview travelers around the world. In the same process, I get a chance to interview a Russian traveler and the winter description that he described was something beyond expectation. It seemed as if I am in Russia and enjoying the winter. I have tried to present here as it was for all my readers. Just check out


    Sweeping of snow in and around the capital city of Moscow while roaming, will give you a feeling of walking in freezer of refrigerator. Don't forget to bring some good winter shoes. You need to always watch your step because even the steps in building are uneven and prone to unexpected changes. You will find your cars overheated but you will fail to find out ways to adjust the temperature in the rooms




    • If it is your first tours to Russia, than it is obvious that you will face problem in understanding and communicating with people. You will also find all non verbal signs on roads in Russian language. The suggestion here goes to familiarize yourself with the Russian alphabets to some extent. It will not let you fail lost.



    • Be careful while crossing roads, just similar to other countries, it is very rare that crosswalks are respected




    • English is a global language, you will find many people speaking the same but there will be some in the tourist cadet who will not speak it. So better have knowledge of English.



    • Enjoy your trip at Russia, and while leaving the Hotels in Moscow don't forget to take your passport and the business card from the Hotels. It will help you to reach safely to the hotels in the case if you get lost. Just show the business card to your Taxi driver and he will take you to the Hotel. And also the camera to collect sweet memories of Russia.




    • How can one forget the food of Russia? You will find food in plenty all delicious and home cooked. You can taste soups, bread etc. Some ready made foods at super markets are also tasty and delicious. Prices too are reasonable. If you are fond of beverages, Russia is a place full with teas, chocolates, candies, vodka and dairy products.



    • While traveling abroad it is suggested to be with sufficient cash. You will not find SWAP machine everywhere. In small departmental store and taxi drivers will prefer paid in cash. Also be with some coins as it may help you to use public toilet.




    • You should also carry toilet papers, soap etc with you. Towels should also be kept with you.



    • You will easily get SIM card with the help of Russian associate. You can easily recharge these cards. ISD calls may prove expensive; you can take help of local phone store.





    • While returning keep some time in extra for Airport, there are lot many formalities to be conducted.
