Hello!

I'd like to go to Moscow in July this year, and I had a few questions I was hoping someone could answer.

The first is regarding a visa - assuming the hotel sends an invitation to the RF and the details on the visa application are correct, is there much chance the visa will be refused?

Also, I'm wondering about how much money I need to save - for anyone who has recently had a visit to Moscow (or lives there) - how much would you allow for 5 days?

Finally, it seems a bit difficult to find rubles in the UK, so I guess it's best to change money when I get there. What currency is best to take?

Thanks very much for any help or information
