Project RuSu 365

Ozode & Sabrina. (SG)

These adorable cousins are from the former Soviet Republic of Uzbekistan. Unable to find work in their country, their parents came to Moscow seeking employment. The mothers of these girls work as 'concierges' - watching who comes & goes and cleaning the foyers of the buildings they live in. In return for their labor they get a room barely large enough to hold a twin-sized bed, and payment from those residents who "choose" to pay them. Payment is optional and it never ceases to amaze me how many refuse to pay $6.50/month for the services of someone who works 16 hours a day, 6 days a week.

The room they live in has no bathing facilities, so the girls often come to our apartment to bathe. They'd never heard of a bubble bath, but once they experienced one, they were hooked. (SG)
