It all comes down to what kind of packages would eventually be on offer. Anyone with a minimum amount of info on the day-to-day life in Russia knows that things are extremely difficult .Very high cost of living,crime rates,and the reduced number of Russian citizens with moderate English knowledge in the main cities would discourage many to make the move,however people did move to the Sandpit(the closest to hell on earth) in search of good packages, so anything is possible.
