why are you going there during winter?
do you expect nightlife or fun?
>>1294405
i dont party or do that much nightlife stuff. I was hoping to find cool places to go and do Russian stuff or pictures. I'll be there studying Russian 6 days a week and I really like soviet era architecture and taking photos of concrete blocks. I went to pyramiden this summer and had a great time lol

Siberiafag living in the states here, you're really lucky, Novosibirsk is the 3rd biggest city in Russia, and since it's not one of the two meme cities you also get to see "real" Russia.

do people ever go out in the winter or mostly stay inside because of the dark and cold?
>>1294429
I think most people just huddle up in their commie blocks when it's -40 outside, but that's also going off of my memories from when I was a little boy and still lived there.
