				| Hi, I'm on my wayt o Moscow next week to begin another adventure overseas. Just wanted to know what the teaching/expat scene is like there? I'm a young Canadian female and have already found a job (one of those cushy private teaching ones) but am expecting to find it somewhat difficult in meeting people since I wont be teaching at a school. It wont be like in Seoul where all the waygooks stuck out!  If anyone can give me tips/advice for Moscow that would be great.
 looking forward to my arrival,
 Faith

				| Meeting people generally comes through work so that shouldn't really be a problem 
 Take a look at other specific sites like www.expat.ru
 
 Pick up a freebie paper at most coffee shops or look at www.themoscowtimes.com
 
 Or contact people via a skype.com search using "moscow"
 
 Also, a general little tip - it's winter now, bring good boots and a warm coat, hat, scarf and gloves
