Question I am being considered as a live in Governess in Moscow. What should I be aware of/ disadvantages etc?
Answer Well, there are some disadvantages, ecpessialy if you used to live in a small town. The biggest one is "traffic". It's all over the day in Moscow. To tell the truth i've never seen such a traffic anywhere then Moscow, but i've never been to Mexico, so i heard it's worse there. Anyways if you like great huge cities with incredible night life milions op people rushing all the time Moscow is surely for you. I love Moscow and i've been living here since i was born =) but at the same time i should go at least twice a year on holiday somewhere far from here to relax and get energy =) and of course the sun! In wintertime and autumn we really miss sun here, but there are worse places thanx god =) if you can't live without the sun never go to Saint Petersburg to live there =)
So back to Moscow ...don't leave your car with open doors if you go to the supermarket =) but it's all for Russia.
Take warm clothes with you, no it's almost April but it's still snowing sometimes =) only next week they promised +9 so not much encouraging
I could tell you more and more but it would take a book to write =)
