Hi all!
My wife and I will be going to a town in Russia for a long period to do humanitarian work and we're considering to register our visas in a hotel (we will stay private).
Questions:
1. Can we face problems with the border police (or local police) when our multi-visas are registered at a hotel for one night only?
2. I read on this site that you can no longer stay more than 6 months continually in Russia. Will it be sufficient after 6 months to cross a border, say, to Finland or Estonia, and travel back to Russia the same day?
Any experience shared will be appreciated
