Personal comments
Everone was very nice and polite at the university because people think and act like europeans. In the street or when communicating with administration and authorities, firstly, they would not talk to you if you did not speak russian, second, foreigners are treated as if they were not humans, theirdly, be aware of russian bueracracy!!!
