I was actually able to visit Russia last summer. It was really cool. Russia is so different compared to the States. I spent 6 weeks in Russia's third largest city Ekaterinburg. It was an amazing experience.

I like to go to Moscow occasionally, but everything there is "hard!" It's an interesting society...
