I am curious how difficult it is for an American who is working in china to acquire a Russian tourist VIsa. I was thinking of looking for teaching jobs in Russia as I love Russian food and want to marry a Russian woman and become a Russian citizen.
4 years 48 weeks ago in Visa & Legalities - China
I was ... in Russia last year with 3-month Business visa through Russian agency for 100 EUR.. Then, I got School which sponsored Working visa.
I had to apply from my home country Russian's Embassy and ... I needed new Medical Exam with (negative) HIV certificate.
I got Working visa in a week, and when I returned to Russia, School told me they don't have any students at the moment... , so I was working some two months part-time at other training mills in the city.
I moved to Istanbul shortly ...
Russia ESL is too disorganized for my taste ...with miserable pay on the top of that.
Stiggs:
How did you find the Russian people Icnif? Aside from being disorganized..
I was asked to help start a training mill in Russia once and my first reaction was 'feck that'. I've always had an image of Russians as being angry, violent drunks who hate everyone not Russian. Possibly not entirely accurate I know but Russia just seems like a miserable place to me.
I don't regret turning that down at all but I have wondered sometimes what it would have been like.

I found them (males) cocky ... for no reason whatsoever, and females are all tennis beauties.
Business wise: they could set-up the class with student (took his money!), but they couldn't make receptionist to wake-up at 9AM and open the door. Student and I were waiting outside ... I told them, I'll quit when that happened second time ... and I moved to Istanbul shortly after.

Loving Russia, sure that’s ok. But loving Putin? You love how unoficially he is the world s richest man with an estimated 200 billion dollars in wealth, all stolen from the Russian people because he is one corrupt mother******
or do you love how he kills journalists and political opponents? Do you love how he A’s caused the Russian economy to be smaller than South Korea? You suck major bum hole dude
cant really hate putin if i would likely act like him if I was in his position. I want to work in Russia so I can get Russian citizenship and become the next Vladimir Putin/Josef Stalin. I am even growing the mustache and I am a very paranoid person.
