That Borat shit been played out.
Thanks for the datasheet Lermontov. Any rough estimate of % that speaks english, younger and older generations?
Hard to say since I almost exclusively spoke in russian with the locals.
A few locals approached me in english or answered in english and kept talking in english even if I was talking in russian, but we're talking about 4-5 persons. All of them were in their twenties.
Out of the five local girls I went out with, all in their twenties and with a college degree, three told me that they could speak english fluently enough to conversate and the two others could not. I spoke in english for fun with 2 of them for a couple of minutes. One had a bad and broken english and the other was speaking fluently almost with an american accent. I was dumbstruck.
My airbnb host was about 40 year old and told me that he couldn't speak english fluently. He told me that he had to use google translate with non-russian speaking guests. I think that above 35-40 y.o. the percentage gets very low.
