We are located in beautiful Montpelier, Vermont (view from the front door of our offices, above). It's a small town, and we are a small publishing company. In most cases, when you call us at 802-223-4955, you will receive a live person.
You might get voicemail after business hours (M-F, 10am to 4pm, Eastern Time), or if we are busy on another line. If so, please leave us a detailed message with your name, number, the best time to call (and your time zone), and what you are calling about, and we will get back to you as soon as possible.
That said, the most efficient way to ask a customer service question is by sending us an email.
On January 1, 2026, Russian Life became an all-digital publication, no longer publishing a paper magazine. Yet we will continue to publish even more articles online. All existing print subscriptions have been converted to digital, which allows users full access to all articles, including our complete archive dating back to July 1995 - that's over 9,000 articles!
