By:Amanda Arreola
Phase |. Learning Experiences
Once I get off the flight I will stay in Russia for one week so I have time to see most of it. A cultural trait that should be expected is Orthodox Christianity and that only celebrate pagan holidays such as Easter,Christmas, and paganism. I will budget $66,204.33 (American money), I need this much money for the needs of thr airflight,hotel,breakfast,lunch,dinner,snacks,transportation,shopping money, and attraction. Russia's region has experienced a lot during war especially the world wars when there men/soldiers were kept captive. Not much really there still aware this can happen again though. Terrorist attacks. We ar at peace with the Russians. No affects will happen when traveling there.
