In 2010 I got my first taste of Russia via St. Pete and Moscow...and I was absolutely blown away. But was this because this was my first time in EE or because it was that good? I really don't know. I do know that I am still blown away at the Ukraine quality. That said, I still have never experienced anything that came close to the visual perfection that was Pacha in Moscow in 2010, surrounded by literally hundreds of models aged 16-24. The # of girls lower than an 8 I could count on one hand that night.
I need to find this out. So after my great time in Ukraine this past month or so, my buddy and I decided to once and for all try to figure out what Russia has to offer, is it that great, is it worth the price, effort and time required to get out there and succeed. I studied Russian for a while so I have some abilities though not great.
We didn't want to go to Moscow and St. Pete again, so we just randomly bought a ticket to Novosibirsk. Been here one day and so far...well I hate to jump to conclusions but it's no Ukraine. Just on the streets there is nothing that really makes me really want it. Sure there are bangable girls here but not what I came for. In Kiev/Odessa I'd see a lot of quality girls - here nothing yet.
Other random thoughts after one day (I know, way too early but here they are anyway): Lots of fat girls (why??), Siberian guys are ugly but aggressive in terms of hounding women, couchsurfers here are NOT attractive, people here get hammered at night, this city is very dead for being the 3rd biggest supposedly in Russia. Yet if you look through VK.com it looks like a modeling site in this city, but where are these girls??
However I thought after my first night in Budapest it was horrible and I was very wrong about that. So I'll stick it out until at least the weekend and see what the face control clubs can do.
We have another 6 weeks left to devote to wherever we want to go. Any suggestions or thoughts are welcome. Some ideas we had:
- Novosibirsk for the 6 weeks (though that idea is quickly fading)
- Novo 2 weeks, Yekaterinaburg for 2 weeks, Moscow for 1 week, Sochi for 1 week
- Some other combo of other cities, maybe Kazan, Nizhny Novgorod, Samara
Ideally I'd like to stay in one city for the entire time, as leads take time to develop and then bang, but am not afraid to bail if there is nothing worth pursuing...
