Yes the trend started a few years ago. Latin America was one of the few places Russians could just pick up and go with a tourist visa. Many have gone to Colombia as well but one told me that I met that they didn't like Cali where their cousin moved and they all moved to Buenos Aires as it is more similar to back home.Russians are very good with languages. They assimilate very well here because they take the time to learn Spanish and many could pass for Argentines. Good to hear they are starting some businesses. Friends in Mexico say many Russians also moving there. From this article it sounds like in Brazil too.
