If I have a nice job working for usa remotely from there, will my banking be OK? As far as I know my credit cards work there and they don't care about my ru/usa passports. Cheaper than moscow...
Thing is in all soviet countries you show your status by the car you drive. I wouldn't want to drive a car there, and especially for it more than in usa.. and that automatically makes you a loser. So is it even realistic to stay more than 2 weeks?
