@Olga Msc hello Olga ! I'm Pascale from France. I live with my daughter in the south of France but we plan to go away from here and we are very impatient to arrive and live in Russia. We don't know if we will leave in Moscow or Saint Petersburg but we are absolutely decided to more in Russia. We'll come in 2 or 3 years and we would have preferred Saint Petersburg but I search a long time on the net and I understood that the academy of medicine doesn't have an English section for foreigners and Rose, my daughter, wants to become a neurologist or cardiologist… so if we can't choose we'll leave in Moscow and Sechenov university has an English médecine section. I saw that students can also learn Russian in just one year, they have 40 hours each week to learn Russian language so in 10 months they are bilingual Russian. So we hesitate to spend a year just for her to learn Russian and after this she will be able to try to become neurologist in a Russian university and so we could leave in Saint Petersburg. I think also she will be happier if she can understand all the students in the university and not only students who are speaking English but sincerely I'm really not sure she will obtain the exam to begin her medicine in Russian… I think she'll maybe spend this year to learn but at the end she ll try English medicine in Moscow and Russian medicine in Saint Petersburg and we'll wait and see if she will obtain one or the other university.

the most important is to obtain one because it's her passion for a very long time.

mit will be more difficult for me to find friends without speaking Russian. How did you do when you arrived here ? Did you speak Russian before your arrival or did you learn it after ? Is it difficult to understand and to speak ? It's so different from our language in France…

so if you want we can write each other but if we are sure to come we have to wait the end of the war first and wait that Rose has her bachelor diploma ( she prepares a double high diploma: French and American in the same time, so she will be English bilingual when we'll come and during these 3 years I need to have a better English and I will begin to learn Russian in September. Like you we love photography and I love history, I know some parts of Russian history too.

i would have stopped working when we'll come and I'm a little stressed to have difficulties to find friends without working. At the beginning I just hope to find some expats who will speak English… I read that Russians don't speak English or if they speak they are young and I'm 50 years old, do you agree with this ?

i stop now writing I have so many questions but let me know if you want to speak and maybe become friends. I wish you the best 👋

@Yoginee hello ! I saw this too late and my mail was sent… could you please explain to me how I can speak with people who are living in Russia, I don't mind if they are Russian or expat, but I don't see a lot of people here … is it normal? Or maybe do I have to find them in another forum? Could you please help me? Thank you very much 👋

@Olga Msc hi

I'm thinking about moving to Russia from New Zealand.

I just want to know if you think it would be possible for me to find work being unable to speak Russian?

My ex-wife and 3 year old son are living by the black sea.

I hope you have found some friends from your post.
