I'm looking at flying into Moscow and being there for new years. Then travel by train to Penza. I plan to be travelling on a Homestay visa.
I studied a year of Russian in college, so I have a basic knowledge of the language and I can read and write in the Cryllic alphabet. Also I will be traveling with my fiancée who's native language is Russian. Plus she has training as an interpreter, so she will be my personal interpreter while I'm there.
I will be traveling into Russia on my own and then meet my fiancée at the airport in Moscow, since she's going back to Russia in October. Have you had any problems with the visa? I also hear a lot of stories about the police being corrupt and bribe-seeking, to what extent is that true?
