Ill travel to Moscow in July next year and ill take about 1 & 1/2 month, maybe 2 month.
(Answering Dr Woland's question of when ill go there)
Something else i need to know is about the cost of ticket's between different cities all along Siberia (Trans-Sib i mean).
Is there a web page that gives me that info???
Knowing well prices makes much easier for me to calculate how much money i could need.
Im also in the attemtp to learn russian language, i already learned their interesting alphabet and it help's a lot in basic reading.
I too have a friend in Moscow and another in Angarsk, they promissed me that they would teach me.
All i could need is a good dictionary, any recomendation???
And if possible also a cassette book to practice before i go there.
Thanks for all again
Martin "Maverick"

Hi Maverick Martin!

I don't know any online source for the prices of rail sectors on Russian Railways - sorry! :-(

About the books etc - I don't know what's on sale in Argentina. In UK, the BBC (national tv company) produced a good series of cassettes + language course, which is still available from Amazon.com. The best language course for quick learning (without going to University-level, I mean) is the Penguin Russian Course, but unfortunately it doesn't have any cassettes - it's really crucial to hear native speakers saying the words.

Dr W.
