@Slubu..I assume your total costs are lower because of splitting with Buddy, but does it include all those flights and train rides?
Tbh if you lived in Moscow your expenses would probably drop due to lower cost long term rental and learning where to go. You Also wouldn't probably want to go out every night anyway.I know guys who do it much lower. Also maybe some venues have those club cards that are common in Ukraine?a
You are right on everything. My costs were lower because of splitting with my buddy. It does include all transportation, including to and from America. And they do have those club cards, at least some places mentioned them.

Hey Slubu,
I've been learning Russian and can read and write it pretty well, but I've been wanting to learn to how write in cursive with cyrillic. I typed into Google "Russian cursive" and "Russian cyrillic cursive" and that produced some results, but I just wanted to see if you have any suggestions on where to go for this.
Any resources you suggest?

Honestly nothing I know off the top of my head. We learned it in class, during the semester course. I thought it was pretty easy, but my buddy couldn't get it for the life of him. So it may be something that you either get easily or you don't.
One thing I will say is that as easy as it is for me to write it, it is much more difficult to actually read cursive. All the lines/squiggles blend together, it's really ridiculous. There were many times in class we would all just laugh because when she wrote a word on the board it just looked like the same line repeated 10x in a row.

Slubu, I do not want to hijack this thread too much but you mentioned you were gonna stop by in Las Vegas after your trip and hit a few clubs. How was that experience? Did the top club talent in Vegas compete at all with the model's in Moscow/Tomsk? Also, 2 years ago when I was in Vegas surprisingly I saw a few Russian tourist girls on the streets but was too shy to approach, perhaps that's an angle to try now that you've gotten to Intermediate level in Russian.
It was pretty horrible. I detailed the best story in McQueen's Vegas sheet just now, but absent messing up an almost sure pull with a Brazilian stripper I was off my game.
The night before I arrived was the night I spent with that blonde from the club in Moscow, the one I was most attracted to and she was treating me like a king. So I get to Vegas and I'm just comparing all these girls to the Russian ones. Already I'm in a bad mood. And I forgot how cavemanish you have to be in Vegas.
Once every few years in Vegas I see talent the level I saw in Moscow several times in the three weeks I was there. American girls don't have the ability to carry themselves in that manner, so even if they are aesthetically as hot, which is not common, they fail to give you that overall sexuality that just burns you up with desire when you are out at nights.

I just had the chance to sit down and read the summary carefully... very well written.
About picking Moscow as the top spot: I remember you mentioning being face controlled many times. Do you feel this would be a long term impediment to getting girls there? I especially ask because if you're getting face controlled, then I know I definitely will.
The fact that Russian girls are more sultry than Ukrainian confirms my suspicions that the two have large differences and I will have to trek my way out to Russia at some point. Just when I thought I could take a break from studying Russian..
To answer your question about the impediment - I do not. The face control in Moscow was different than places like Tomsk or Kiev. In Moscow, there is no rhyme or reason. The same person on the same night of the week with me wearing the same thing would let me in one time, and not another. It's just luck of the draw. In Kiev for example, they are outwardly racist and will sometimes face control you for your looks.
The most controlling factor I can think of is size of group. When I was alone, or with just my buddy, we'd usually get in. Throw in a girl or more guys and sometimes it would get tougher. But really it is just pure luck. Or go early, that seemed to counter it.
Ukrainian girls and Russian girls were very different to me. It was a shock to be honest. Especially the sexuality, it reminded me of Brazil. The way if they liked you upon meeting, their hands would be on your arms, chest, etc. within minutes. Kissing was also very passionate. Also Russian girls seemed a lot less racist. Don't get me wrong they are not PC by any means, as they still hate gays, but are generally more cool with other nationalities than their Ukrainian counterparts.
I'm probably a year or so away from actually doing a long term move, but even this morning as I was walking my dog instead of listening to music I listened to Russian Pimsleur. I'm not giving up.
