Moscow's changing attitude
Unfortunately Moscow seems to be moving towards the Fuck the foreigner’s mindset.
On my last trip it was nonstop, CF girls tried to get money up front, Militia hassles with no girls in the car, wait staff stealing money from a paid bill, Moscow Rick’s assistant scamming money, problems with escorts companies that had been reliable, on & on. This was completely different from prior trips.
A couple of simple of suggestions concerning safety issues with the working girls, Tochka, CF or any pro.
Watch your drink at all times. If at any time it has been unprotected get another. You may pay for a couple of extras at the bar or dirty a few more glasses in your apartment. So what?
Lock you apartment door always. The girls expect this; I have never had one complain or feel threatened. No girl is leaving until you say so anyway. Lock up your valuables with the key.
Don’t get so shitfaced drunk that you loose your ability to be aware of what’s going on. Our own Doc Skank operates best in this knee-walking drunk condition, most of the rest us do not.
Moscow can be an incredibly fun city, but is becoming more hazardous and extremely expensive. Might be time to look for other areas to monger in. Sounds as though CT may have found an interesting alternative in Odessa.
