“It’s a little slower, a little poorer and a little more conservative than in Moscow”, — said the journalist.
However, the author claims that she likes both Russian cities, and in order not to hurt anyone’s feelings, leads pre-conceived response:
“The city is not a faithful husband, and therefore it is possible to love two”.
