Good call on the stilettos!! I was sitting at an outdoor cafe today waiting for my friend, and there was a group of police randomly stopping people, asking for papers/identification, and then some of those people would go for a little ride in a police car if they didn’t have the right papers. I just kept my head down and kept writing and tried not to make eye contact or look as nervous as I was. Other than that, I’m pretty impressed with Moscow!

Totally!!!! Be careful! Avoid eye contact! Do you have your embassy number in your backpocket? Get out your stilettos and try to blend in!
