I never collected stamps or coins!I think its impossible to get by without knowing Russian. The language has helped me find food, transport, avoided misunderstandings, helped read directions and even get some money on my credit card!! While a trip would be possible to the big cities without knowing Russian, I think one would be completely lost without knowing the language. :) Hi Neeraja,

LOL It was quite cold, but not that cold. The temperature was between +10 and -1 deg C. Oh and that intersection did have a traffic light, I guess the way I framed the picture, it is not very evident... hehehe, right-hand driving is right, left-hand driving is wrong, simple! LOL
