Let me lead you through the streets of Moscow

This project is all about Moscow. It is the result of collaboration of several people who will introduce themselves here.

Anni Pelmeni:
Privet everybody! I chosen a nickname Pelmeni to let you learn an useful word for your further travel to Russia and to Moscow. Pelmeni is a typical Russian meal and I myself like pelmeni very well. I live in Moscow for about 3 years. I did my studies in Germany and afterwards returned to Moscow to live in the rhythm of this megapolis. Now Moscow is my everyday life and I have lots of stories to tell about this city. Moscow is the capital of Russian Federation and a very special city in the whole Russia to the point that many claim that Moscow is no longer Russia. Is that so? Moscow is a difficult city with lots of contradicting sides, but it is also a city of great opportunities and chances. Moscow is a fun city with lots of life going-on, but is also a city of failed ambitions and lost hopes.
In this blog I will not discuss politics or economics, instead in this space I will try to show different sides of Moscow as a city – architectures, streets, parks, little charming places, unknown hideouts so when you visit Moscow you will have a feeling of déjà vu. Maybe you will learn to understand Russian people better when you read about our way of living (and also eating – meals unite people ), about our dreams and hopes. You are more than welcome to visit Moscow and explore the city so see you here soon!

Brit Muscovite:

I enjoy Moscow promenade especially early in the mornings on the weekends when street are still empty. These are special moments to enjoy the old Moscow city center. I keep a track of Russian legislation and try to makes sense of ever-changing body of Russian laws. I love reading about the history of Moscow and how Moscow is reflected in Russian literature. The essays about Moscow of Dostoevsky, Tolstoy, Mayakovsky will so be featured on out website. I encourage you to visit our city and find your own Moscow.

Lolita Pavlova:

Lolita is a middle age housewife who has way too much free time at her hands. Lolita likes manga, tee Earl Grey, chocolate cakes. Shakespeare and old photographs. Lolita reads a lot and can quote the names of Russian rulers in the chronographic order starting from the 9th century. Lolita does the translations for the website and keeps up with the updates on various bohemian / cultural events. She wants eventually write a series about the history of fashion in Moscow and Moscow underground culture.
