@MrPipe115 Well, one thing you are right about, and one thing you are wrong about.

Russia does not have crappy food. They have the richest, most fertile soil on Earth, making for the cleanest, healthiest vegetables and fruits (whatever is able to grow there).

But in Sochi, the main city is well above 1°C. The winter average there is more like 7°C. It never really gets icy there (except in the mountains as shown. Palm trees grow in Sochi. :3

I have never seen an American waiting for a visa to move to the RUSSIAN FEd. The only visa we need is just to go there for a couple of days and bang some russian chicks. I drove from Moscow to the Krasnodar region and that has been the worts experience of my life, document and then diengui (he was happy with 300 r). I also went to Gab-Cherkessia, kakaia dump, I felt like if I was in an Arabic country. I love the standing "toilets" then after a shit no bumaga, ups wiped my butt . M-4 South

@welcomegohome yeah I know it's sad. Too many social-shunned uneducated cultist freaks on youtube that think people take them seriously. haha

@welcomegohome yes, yes

Krasnodar will be the Russia's new California in terms of tourism, world events and of course debt.

Sochi will get it first taste of long term debt. Enjoy!
