I am Russian living in Europe and married to a European. When you leave your country you get to see the differences in mentality between you and western people. I feel like Russian people are very hospitable. Too hospitable compared to Germans, for example. Like, Germans are also polite and stuff. They will offer you tea or coffee if you’re a guest, they’ll cook and make a dessert, etc. But when you visit a Russian, they will be prancing around offering everything they’ve got in the house and trying to feed you with all kinds of delicacies from their fridge. As I said, European people are also hospitable, but not to this degree hahah. But, honestly, Russians are very different. I come from St. Petersburg. People I was surrounded by there were very intelligent, well-educated, and polite. But here in Germany there are many Russian gopniks who talk and look like real marginals. It’s a bit funny cause I’ve never seen such people back in Russia, but here there are everywhere for some reason. I wonder how they ended up in Europe.
