It's pretty safe in Moscow, you aren't going to be robbed/raped for sure.

I studied abroad for a year in Moscow in college.

The hardest part about the entire thing was learning Russian, which I'm happy I can carry a conversation in now. Moscow is pretty safe, don't go down dark alleys, walk around by yourself at night, etc. Same shit as any big city. I had a couple of schoolmates who had family in St. Petersburg and we all went there by train a couple of times during the year to visit. If you are invited to someone's home, bring flowers/vodka/a gift.

Russian qts, and russians in general were hard asses at first, even my initial contacts at the school when I first arrived. But that's just the culture. After a few days I became accustomed and was snagging qt russian snatch in no time.

>Where should I go
I don't know what do you like, but Red Square is a must see as same with the subway. Some cathedrals here and there. If you don't speak Russian, don't go to museums, most of them don't have infomation in English.

>apps should I use to hook up with the locals?
Just open your mouth and talk to them.

Are you retarded? Russian art is one of the finest in europe. Also, ever heard of internet? Can catch the name of the artist and check on google after.

Also, google translator has the camera function, that can give you the sense of whatever is written in cyrilic. Op, I strong suggest you to go to Tetryakov Gallery.

Try to visit "Kolomenskoe" https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kolomenskoye
