Dealings with Russia are always so fun and complicated! This is an update on the internship situation, which is really an update on the visa situation.
1) The Good News: We have an apartment! And its address! And I know which pizza company delivers, and it's next to a Ramstore, and a big shopping centre. Both things I would hate here, but which come in real handy in Russia.
*ETA*: And plane tickets have been secured. Hopefully we won't need to change them.
2) The Unclear News: We were first told it would take 10 days to send us our invitation. We sent in our applications end of December. We were then told the invitation would be ready January 12th. Then we were told it would take 1-2 days for it to be shipped to us. And then we were told they dont't know which date we'll be receiving the invitation. I think it's all just one big test to see if we're ready for Moscow.
3) The bad news is that I forgot to give Mireille back her keys before I left Montreal, and that her dog is now stuck in the apartment all day long.
