Moscow prices

Now let me relate some of my impressions of Moscow. Everything was extremely expensive — four times as much as in America. If you order some orange juice, a little soup and a small cake, it comes to fifty-two American dollars. That is the truth! For pizza, a little orange juice and something else, we paid twenty dollars. For one small samosa, we paid five dollars. Everything, including garments, was unbelievably expensive.
