Zelenyovo village in Ryazan region. There are only 30-40 houses in village but almost half are abandoned. You can lodge for free in your choice of any of those abandoned. While you there, you may visit my uncle’s goat farm. He has entertaining lama now also. If you nice he will let you feed goat. His is third house from end of village on right side. Nice.

    i haven't been to baikal (the lake) or murmansk (most northern important city in the world) but would suggest these.

    currency is 30-31 rubles. you'll find some things sell on rubles as would be on dollars. others will be same as dollar prices. like a tee shirt souvenir would be $ 10-15 (300-500 rubles) always bargain-down prices in open air markets, not the shops. and if hungry a snack of sausage "doctorskaya" 100-200 grams could be bought for 60c to $ 1.20. cut in a chunk right before you. (sliced in moscow) and a bread roll for 10 rubles. 30c. if you go to st petersburg, try the black currant ice cream. "chernaya-black smorodina-currant berry" is seldom seen (by me!!) outside "spb".

    of course moscow has many attractions, St Basil's cathedral and red square, the moscow metro itself, gorky and many other parks, moscow zoo, the "moskva" river.

    the land is free to roam on. if you visit small towns and just want to walk in nature, there are few places a person is not allowed to just go. you can walk, fish (without nets) without a license; hunt mushrooms (easy to know right ones) in season -september, usually; wild strawberries june-july, bird watch, hill climb etc.

    i live about 700 miles past moscow, in winter, when i am there.
