Is it chaotic?” Let me tell you: It’s totally safe and not chaotic at all! 😊 💵 Money Tips: Avoid currency exchange at the airport (40% fee!). ATMs at the airport didn’t work for me — go to Gazprombank or use Bank of China instead. Better to exchange currency in your home country before traveling. Due to sanctions, international cards (Visa/Mastercard) don’t work in Russia — bring cash! #TravelDiary #SoloTravel #Moscow #RedSquare #Kremlin #GUM #LeninMausoleum #StBasilsCathedral #RussiaTravel #AdventureAwaits 🌍✈️❤️
