    Great content so interesting.. I live in Dublin it's so expensive rent for 1 bedroom apartment is 1500 to 1750 euros to rent.. It is basic.. Food has got so expensive. Weather here is bad for farming as rain there's to much so there is a huge shortage of potatoes this year.. Brexit hasn't helped England nor Ireland either.. Also to have a beer in Dublin hot-spot you pay 10 euro for a pint it's a tourist trap. Other places in countryside you can pay 6 euro or maybe cheaper if your lucky.. Food looks great there as its home produced much better.. 😊

      Prices went up in Russia too, but it is almost nothing in comparison to how prices skyrocketed in other countries ( lately we visited some countries that we had already visited before and noticed that we couldn’t afford things that we could have afford couples years ago)

    Hi Karina, do you see many foreigners living in Russia? And do you think it'd be easy to move with English and learn Russian onsite?

    • @karinaleshinsky6186
      @karinaleshinsky6186  หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Hi! There are foreigners especially in Moscow! My Québécois boyfriend was living in Russia for 7 months (might ask him to participate in a video and tell about his struggles in Russia and with a Russian language 😅) we lived in a little town 99km from the capital. My boyfriend already knew some Russian but it still was a struggle for him to live in a Russian speaking environment.
      Though settle in can be easy if you have a russian speaking person helping you. (My classmate from the university had a part-time job helping English speaking foreigners settle in Moscow) so this kind of service can be available for you to help you settle in - rent something long term and get a bank account and ect

      You need to look for an apartment with registration. Foreigners coming to Russia must register with the Ministry of Internal Affairs. In hotels, this is done automatically, and apartment owners can do it, or they may not, it doesn't seem to cost money, but it costs time, so it depends only on the desire of the apartment owner. We need to look for those apartment owners who do this.

      The direct comparison is kinda foolish. Purchasing power parity should be taken into consideration. For instance, my salary is about 150 thousand roubles (approx 1670 usd) . I pay 70 usd/month for my apt in winter. (3 room apt, 75 square meters) It includes all the utility services such as electricity, water, heating, internet (unlimited 100mbit 5usd/month) etc... And I pay 35 usd/month when no heating is needed. I pay 5 usd/month for my cell phone (1500min, unlimited internet) so my 1670 usd here in Russia have way more purchasing capability than in US or Canada...

Streets are not safe, you literally cannot walk in some places without being robbed or worse. I was surprised to see gang members openly hanging around on the streets in US. Narcos or homeless live right in the city center, sleeping outside and littering around. No such things in Russia. To each their own. I dont say what's better. No ideal country exists.
