You should have seen the look at the Russians. My mom used to keep the house at 13 C so I am used to the cold. Your mom is great mom. In our countries children must be accustomised to the cold. My mom is same. I used to sleep without any cover and I feel comfortable now. Anyway Moscow is a warm place. I don't think that foreigners should have problems with it. Ural and Siberia - another case. -10..15 considered a warm templerature, -15..-20C is still comfortable but -35C with strong wind will kill you quickly without proper dressing.

Your flats are horribly hot. I assume the villages are different than the block of flats. My record is minus 56C. Your piss will freeze before it hits the ground. Friend of mine stayed in a camp way North of Magadan. When it is cold and stressful, that is when you become true comrades and friends.
