Looking for American Expats in Russia?

Every year, we publish one of the biggest global surveys for expats — Expat Insider — where we ask people living around the world about every aspect of expat life. We’ve rounded up key facts about the typical American expat: what motivated them to move to a new country, what they enjoy about life abroad, as well as what they struggle with the most.

Obviously, embarking on expat life in Russia is not only about packing boxes and getting some paperwork done. The regular exchange with your American compatriots is also an important aspect of the expat experience and can help you get accustomed to the Russian culture and people. InterNations helps you meet and interact with other Americans in Russia, living in Moscow, Yekaterinburg, Saint Petersburg and many other places across the country. Just take a look at our group ofAmericans in Moscow orAmericans in St. Petersburg.
