On many forums, topics like "How much money did the program cost in total?", "How much is it?", etc., pop up periodically. Let's try to figure it out together! :) Of course, I will be updating this information) Sorry for being overly detailed :) At the end, I will calculate the main and additional expenses. So: What I have already spent: 250 RUB – photo for the CMO application and passport 1500 RUB – fee to CMO $300 - registration fee to International Exchange Center $35 – SEVIS Fee 500 RUB – bank commission for money transfer 2500 RUB – cost of issuing a new-style passport $15 – payment for Skype calls to America $960 – remaining cost of the Program $20 - medical insurance for an additional month in the USA (for those leaving after September 15th) $14 - payment for the second installment transfer 5500 RUB (4200 - consular fee + 1300 - Pony Express services) 140 RUB - 3x4 color photo for ISIC 400 RUB - ISIC registration 250 RUB - English-Russian dictionary 499 RUB - document briefcase 899 RUB - bag for belongings 269 RUB - sneakers 6250 RUB – train trip to Yekaterinburg for the visa 1500 RUB - pocket money (for food) What I still have to spend: ~10000 RUB – plane ticket Krasnoyarsk – Moscow ~ $300 – plane ticket New York – Panama City $500 – pocket money Expenses are strictly individual, that's always the case) And how much did you spend? =) (07.02.2011) (09.03.2011) - edited (31.03.2011) - edited (13.04.2011) - edited (29.04.2011) - edited (02.05.2011) - edited (24.05.2011) - edited http://www.ozon.ru/context/detail/id/3837249/

I've been looking for a job for three days now with no results... Well, this isn't Panama City Beach after all... A microscopic resort town... And this is, you could say, a metropolis=)(compared to Panama City Beach, where I was last year, San Francisco is just a metropolis!!!).... I was already starting to give up... Today I went out to look for work again..... And.... Where didn't I fill out applications, where didn't I hand out resumes, and in the end.... I walked into a restaurant and ran into the owner. She asked me to fill out an Application, she interviewed me right there, I had to lie a little bit that I have Serve experience=) and they told me to come to work tomorrow... I left full of joy.... I'm walking and thinking, but tomorrow I have to pick up my sister at the airport.... I went back and said, this and that.... They asked me to come on Monday already in uniform and train together with Marina (definitely Russian). Then I went into a large complex... they asked me to fill out a resume again... 2 managers interviewed me and said to bring documents for processing on Tuesday... Woohoo.... I went further and stumbled upon another cute restaurant... I thought, let me go in... I went in, they asked me to fill out an application.... A manager interviewed me.... He says, what's your favorite dish... Well, I tell him "Hash puppies"... He says, try to sell it to me... Well, I sold it to him=))) He says, what position do you want... I say, well, I don't know, maybe try as a Host first, he says, oh super, I'm actually the Host manager.... Now, he says, I'll call your manager in Panama City Beach and ask how you worked there last year.... Well, I say, ok=) He went to call.... My hands got sweaty from excitement..... He came back and says... "Well, Andrey liked how you worked last year. COME TOMORROW FOR AN INTERVIEW WITH THE GENERAL MANAGER." I went for a walk around the city.... It was so hot today that my shoulders even got sunburned!

Day 23 I got up at 4 a.m., pulled out all my suitcases, and woke up Ksyusha since she was the only one who decided to say goodbye to me. We sat around waiting for the taxi, and she told me about their trip to the store yesterday with the "accountant," which made me laugh. The taxi arrived, we said our goodbyes, and I headed to the bus stop, waited for the bus, and set off for New York. The first stop was Panama City. I had wanted to move there, but I thought it would be better to go to a big city. The stop was 40 minutes long; I wanted to walk around and take some photos, but my batteries died, so I had to get photos for my page from the internet. I really liked that Greyhound stops are located in the city center, meaning you can see the city in all its glory. Panama didn't differ much from Pensacola, except that the city was prettier; I never actually found a city in Pensacola. I walked around, got on the bus, and continued my journey.

Destin, Florida Yesterday we took our last walk on the beach. At night. There was no other time, because work ended at ten in the evening, and then our Russian and American friends stopped by the Russian house to say goodbye. After we saw everyone off, I, Natasha, another Natasha, and Lena went for a walk on the beach. It was windy because a storm had recently passed. The full moon was shining, and silver glints reflected on the noisy waves that hadn't calmed down yet. Lightning flashed in the distance. - That's it, the storm moved toward Panama City, which means everything will be calm in Fort Walton tomorrow... we'll fly out... - as always, I found time to philosophize... - My God, how familiar these names are now! Destin, Niceville, Fort Walton, Panama City!... - Girls, you are leaving and it's like a piece of me is going with you... - Natasha from Chelyabinsk says thoughtfully, - two tenths, two out of ten! - Exactly! Ira left - that was one tenth, and now there are two of us... Today is August 14th. Exactly two months since we arrived in Destin. And we are leaving. Everything was planned long ago - Melissa and the Grand Canyon are waiting for me in Arizona, and I am truly very excited, but that doesn't make it any easier to say goodbye to the girls, our "Russian house", "The Commons", "Maui Nix", "Cold Stone", Destin, and Florida - this life looks like a bright postcard on the surface, like a funny story, but that's not the case - these two months in Florida are not a story, this all happened to me. I worked until the very last day. Four hours after our night farewell to one of the most beautiful beaches in the USA, I was already biking to "Abercrombie and Fitch". Since that incident a couple of weeks ago, when I wasn't supposed to work but they called me at 7:35 AM and I came in at 8:00 anyway, they started putting me on the earliest morning shifts on Wednesdays and Thursdays, when a lot needs to be changed in the store: putting out new merchandise, changing clothes on mannequins, and so on... And that's great, because one job doesn't overlap with the other. Today I worked from 7 to 12. I only "woke up" when the store opened - at 10. To "Mambo No. 5" - the only song at "Abercrombie" that makes me move faster. 11:59 12:00 - that's it. End of work! Work, good bye! Hello, travel! A photo for memory and I'm running to "Cold Stone" - Olya from Vladivostok is working there today, and I need to say goodbye. We are sitting by the back entrance of "Cold Stone", among boxes, bags, and other trash - two Russian girls, two out of ten, one is a sales assistant, the other is an ice cream maker... - I'll be living at Brian's after September 1st, when we all move out. Can you imagine, I'll be living in an American family! - Well, that's cool! You know how useful that will be for your English! We go outside. Passersby turn around and look with interest at the two girls - one of them in the black "Cold Stone" uniform, the other in the "Abercrombie" dress code. The ice cream maker girl hugs the sales assistant girl. - Thank you! You always supported me! - Olya is crying. - And thank you too! Maybe we wouldn't have become friends if we had just met in normal life, in Russia. But with you, I definitely would have become friends, and how! ... I cross the intersection of Crystal Beach Drive and US 98 for the last time, turn onto Luke Avenue, then onto Cobia Street, put the bike in the middle of the yard - Hanna should recognize it immediately, it's her bike now. - Oh, my girls are getting ready! - Karina enters the room. - They are coming for us any minute. - Who? - Carey from work. The flight was delayed by two hours, I'm worried, the layover in Atlanta is now only half an hour, and that's the biggest airport in the country!.. Do you need the "Abercrombie" bags? - Yeah, give them here! - Have a safe flight and don't kill any Americans, - Tyler gives me parting advice. - I'll come back and kill you!, - I hug him, - thank you for everything, Ty
