I've been to plenty of of AMPs, but am curious about the Russian places around New York City.  Can anybody fill me in about what the experience is like?  Thanks!

AMPs differ from city to city and region to region. Have you considered asking the mods to move your post to the NY board? The NYers might be better able to help you there.

Women working there are from former USSR with accents similar (although often heavier) than mine

In case it's not obvious, OP originally posted to General Discussion and I guess a mod reading my reply moved the discussion to NY.

I can't help OP with the NYC RMPs. The TER reviews of RMP experiences I've read weren't all that encouraging.

But no one has as lovely an accent as you Lina

They are so magnificently prominent, they are difficult to ignore.
Truthfully, you are a very lovely lady. Its a pleasure to know you!
XOXO

Re: Thank you dear

Hopefully it will be a pleasure again
