Minus 30C! This is a mild winter day in Ottawa, and balmy winter day in Winnipeg...
I am sure you get these temperatures in the mountains of India too! You should bring some warm clothes from India, because they are expensive in Russia...
Next time, you should get the summer contract there...
Also bring a swim suit...you could go to mixed banya...
