To this day I don't ever remember seeing a pet inside Moscow, I never saw anyone carrying a dog, or leading a dog. Err I finally saw a, a pet some years later in Kiev, so I thought that life must have been, different.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I went to Moscow and met some slightly powerful and scary people.
I absolutely fell in love with Moscow. It's one of those places where you can't help but trip over history at every turn. It's a city of enormous contradictions. Within a few yards of Lenin's Tomb is some of the most expensive shopping in the world.
I came to Moscow when I was 5 years old from Baku. To walk all night in Moscow will bring back my youth to me.
I was friends with Russians who said I should see Russia. I went there in '93 and it was so exciting, and I went to Siberia and had a great time.
I was in New York and I walked into this pet store and came out with a dog.
I do not like Moscow life. You live here not as you want to live, but as old women want you to.
Russia is now very far from being a communist country, but when I walked around Moscow, I kept glimpsing these haunting images. There were statues of Lenin and some neon signs of the hammer and sickle. I remembered myself then as a little girl, living under that oppression.
Moscow is a huge inspiration for me. I love what I find here, I love being here.
As long as I can remember, I've always had pets. Something about the connection you share with this entirely different species just blows my mind.
I've never been without a dog. I've made trips across the country with a dog.
