The climate in Russia ranges from arctic in the north to subtropical in the Black Sea coast: In the winter it can be extremely cold during the short summer months, very hot. In many places, spring thaw, the rivers burst their banks, turning the streets into puddles. Especially nice are the "White Nights" in the far north, where in June and July the sun sets just a few hours.

Hotels and restaurants in major cities are quite expensive, although the average income is even in the capital less than 200 euros. Foreigners usually pay higher hotel rates, the same applies for admission to museums. Often prices are quoted in units ( "ue"), which correspond to one U.S. Dollar. Payment is not always in rubles.

German and English speaking doctors are only available in the cities. Government hospitals generally do not correspond to Western standards, the alternative is expensive private clinics. All services must be paid in cash or by credit card. Pharmacies are often open until late at night, recipes are not usually required. Vaccinations are not compulsory but recommended (eg, hepatitis A and B) tick vaccine. Make sure when prescribed foreign health insurance to guaranteed return in an emergency.
