Is it easy to spot a foreigner in Russia?
What gives it away that a person is not Russian?

Anyway nobody is surprised (in St.Petersburg and in Moscow) if he see a foreigner..... so don't be afraid Smile

Dmitri, here in Canada, Russian wear bright clothes, smile and such, but you still spot them a mile away. It is funny that here, Russians(and other foreigners) are the ones that are more talkative on Metro and English Canadians never/rarely speak on the Metro. So far without them speaking, I have only missed one Russian person that I thought was native Canadian.

Russian's wear bright clothes here? I didn't notice that. Personally most people can't tell that I'm Russian and are surprised when I tell them....but maybe that's cause I'm not a fob anymore.

Same as

U're right. I said that my English is bad, because I'm learning it now.

That's funny I've had that same look before. In Washington DC, Jamaica, and in Newark NJ.

In my area of the world it's considered rude not to wave at people you pass when traveling country roads. Even when I am 100 miles away drivers in passing cars will wave at each other. oooh! Maybe it's my red hair.

In Washington DC a fellow in front of me dropped his payroll check on the street, he didn't notice. I had to chase him three blocks before he would stop so I could give it back to him.[/quote]
