My Services for expats:
 |
Any transportation needs; |
| Household setup; |
| Shopping and Sightseeing; |
| Translation, if needed. |
Moscow is one of the most expensive cities in the world for expats. All services for foreigners here are very overpriced. Many of my clients from all over the world have been amazed that prices could be higher than in New York or London for example.
If you are going to be living in Moscow for a long time, as your personal guide and driver, I can assist you with starting your new lifestyle. As a local Moscow resident, I know and can help you to find everything you need at reasonable prices.
I can help you with household setup here, for example:
identifying necessary stores in the area you live (groceries, dry cleaners, pharmacy, health clubs, post office, banks, bookstores, etc);
purchase of appliances (help reading the package labels, discussion with sales staff, help determining if the current requirements, etc are correct for operating in Russia);
buying internet access and mobile phone cards;
as a general reference for questions about local customs, etc.
I can organize all your transportation needs during the week according to your business and family needs, for example:
business meetings or office for you;
school for your kids;
shopping for your wife;
sightseeing for your family on the weekend.
Besides providing any translation needs anythere, I also have had experience teaching my clients the Russian alphabet (cyrilic) and common Russian words and expressions which will be helpful for you in the future (for example, to read signs in Russian or to buy something in a shop).
Look at responses from my clients, and you will find out more about where I can be of help to you in Moscow.

We finally arrived home after a very eventful trip to Italy, Greece, Turkey, and Egypt. However, one of the most memorable times was our day with you in Moscow. Thank you for spending the time with us.
We didn't know what the process would be when we arrived at the Moscow airport nor did we really know if you would be there to meet us. We were just a bit apprehensive. Not only were you there but you were there before we were and you were ready to escort us around. You had the day planned so that we could crowd as much into it as possible. You seemed to know what we would enjoy best and enjoy it we did. St. Basil's Cathedral, in my mind, is one of the Wonders of the World. I am impressed with your knowledge of history.
One highlight for me was getting back to the airport. I have never seen traffic like that before. Where else do sidewalks become a lane of traffic or where unused oncoming lanes become lanes going our direction? Even you seemed amazed at the driver who negotiated the heavy traffic going backwards. That was the most fun trip I have ever made in bumper-to-bumper traffic. I realize you didn't plan that but thanks for it anyway.
Not only did we enjoy our time with you but you created enough interest that I would like to return sometime and have you show me more. I have one request. The borsch at the restaurant that you took us to was wonderful. You mentioned that your mother's borsch is better. Is there any chance she would share the recipe with us?
Thank you for the fun day. To anyone who reads this or would like to contact me, I would give you my very highest recommendation. Thanks for adding to our adventure.
Sincerely,
Allen Sumsion
