Thanks to mycodybear I have the address to the host family dh and I stayed with in Krasnodar. I would LOVE to send them some pictures of Tyler.
I was wondering can the mailing address be written in English or does it have to be in Russian?

My local post office said to write it in English and in much smaller print put it in Russian below...

if you don't have the cyrillic address, it will eventually get to them but it will take a long time. unless they are in a big city.

if you can get the cyrillic address, use both.

and the cyrillic address is opposite order of ours:

russia
region + 6 digit code (i think it's 6)
street address
name

How do I get the "english address" translated into the cyrillic address?

if you want to PM me the address, I can have my russian friends translate it. it will take a day or two probably.

Also--they list the lines of the address in the opposite order that we do. Country first, postal code, city, street, then name of person. If you write Russia in English at the top that's all the USPS needs to get it to there and then the rest should be in cyrillic.
