Oh, don't say that! I wish you could visit Russia)

I'd love to! It's such a big place I wouldn't be able to see it all though. I've heard there are very strict requirements in place for visitors to Russia. Do you know anything about that?

I don't know how this really happens. I hear it's expensive for foreigners. But maybe if you go with a tourist group, it's easier. Now in Russia a lot of tourists, especially from China.

Ok, thanks. I'll look into it. I've heard that it can take years to get approved for a visit. Surely that can't be accurate...but you never know until you do the research.
