Ex-capital of the late Soviet Union, now capital of a hybrid lifestyle made up by super-rich ex-communists, Moscow seems like the perfect long-weekend destination for the always curious traveler… It was my second time there, and a lot has changed due to a growing middle class of smart & sophisticated young people with an international attitude (not the new-rich extravaganza I had met before). But still, for a huge city like this, the art & lifestyle scene is surprisingly limited.
Here are some of my (few) favourites…
