Life in Moscow
For Russian lawyers joining the firm, living in Moscow will need no introduction. For expats, by contrast, life in the Russian capital presents a heady mix of the familiarity of globalisation and the edginess of something different.
The growing international business community here is attracted not only by the nature of the commercial landscape but also by an element of the frontier spirit. This is engendered by the fast pace of Russia’s economic activity, the opportunity to witness rapid change and the fact that life here is simply less homogeonised than many other places on the expatriate circuit.
For the adventurous, the opportunities for exploring less frequented regions of the world are numerous. With more bars and restaurants than New York and an incredibly rich cultural offering, the rewards of time spent here, for those curious and willing enough to explore, will encompass far more than career development alone.
