Russia Bound

I'm Russia bound! 3rd September 2011 I will be flying to Moscow before reaching my final destination of Yaroslavl (about 4-5 hours away).   To say I'm scared is an understatement but I will keep trying to convince myself that I will be absolutely fine.  I'll be spending around 9 months there, during which time I will be living with a family and studying Russian at a language school.  I also want to do other things such as teaching English and volunteering but who knows if this will actually materialise.  We shall see!


 I plan to use this blog to record whatever trials and tribulations come my way, and who knows, there may even be some hilarity! Either way, it is undoubtedly going to be an incredible experience and I hope to have lots of amusing tales to report back with.  Next task: buy thermals.
