Do you live and work in Russia? Read our recommendations and find out how to make your stay in Russia safe and comfortable.
1. 🤝 COMMUNICATE
Make acquaintances with other migrants and locals, find new friends, but be careful when chatting in various chat rooms and Telegram channels - there are scammers in them too. Make sure that you are communicating with real people, try to check information about them on the Internet. Do not contact dubious companies, do not carry out strange assignments (take something somewhere) – this way you can be involved in illegal activities.
2. 🧑🏫 LEARN THE LANGUAGE, DEVELOP, GET AN EDUCATION
Try to learn Russian and improve your pronunciation. Do not speak loudly in public places, behave culturally, as Russian people are wary of guests and do not really like it when they speak an unfamiliar language. Pay attention to how it is customary to behave on the street, in public transport. Do not address a Russian person as "brother" - this is not accepted. If you need to ask something, it's better to say: "Excuse me, can you tell me..."
3. ⚠️ BE LAW-ABIDING
Do not appear untidy in public places. Be polite, smile. Try not to get into quarrels, avoid provocations – it's better to apologize and leave. Remember that your family is waiting for you at home, and your task is to return to them healthy!
4. 🏖 TAKE CARE OF YOUR HEALTH, HAVE A CULTURAL REST
Exercise, dress neatly. Inexpensive and high-quality items can be purchased in shopping malls or online. Compare prices: sometimes cheap things are no worse than expensive ones.
5. 💸 KEEP A BUDGET – RECORD EXPENSES AND EXPENSES
