At reputable escort and model agencies you are paying for the companionship of a nice looking lady. You may also choose to take her for a drink, to the theatre or for dinner or just for a long walk and a chat.

For men (or women) wanting more, take into account the following advice. Again, keep in mind that officially prostitution is illegal. We do not recommend picking up women or prostitutes at night along Russian streets or boulevards, especially if you do not speak Russian. Apart from running the risk to get sedated and robbed, it might be dangerous for your health too; Russia has an increasing rate of HIV.

It might happen that you meet a one-night-stand (or your future wife) in a club or a bar – some expats run into new adventures every week. Be aware that it is not always clear if this is a paid ‘love’ or not. Be careful inviting women to your home after your first chat and watch your drinks carefully… We know stories of guys bringing a nice Russian lady home and waking up the next day with an enormous headache, an empty wallet, an empty fridge, no laptop, and even the washing powder stolen!
