HOT A vegetarian festival is supposed to be happening in Etnomir (Kaluga region, 100-something kilometers south from Moscow) July 30 to August 1 2010. Write to me for details.

 

 

 

A compilation of materials to help English-speaking vegetarian travellers to stay well-fed and otherwise comfortable should they be crazy enough to chose Moscow as their destination.  Vegetarian cafes, vegetarian-friendly homestays, vegetarian organizations, vegetarian dating in Russia, my favourite places to shop in Moscow.. Some info on Saint Petersburg is also available.

Enquiries from vegetarians planning to visit this bleak and cold land of vodka, sausage, absurd visa rules, crooked and corrupt cops, and compulsively and continuously spitting populace - what have I done do deserve living here?! - are welcomed. 

Operators of vegetarian or vegetarian-friendly restaurants, food shops, camps, and other establishments, especially outside of Moscow and Saint-Petersburg if such happen to be found in Russia and surrounding territories, are encouraged to send me information to be added to this page. Your story will be posted and possibly featured. Fast, gratis, and with no volume limitation other than that dictated by common sense. Just write.
