Like the title says, what are good tiny presents for russians. I will be carrying everything on a bike for 4 months, and sadly will not be able to fill up my bags with presents like towels and such that were recommended on another strand.

Try to find some very small souvenirs resembling your country? For instance: Don't know about russia, but in other places where i went they always liked the two-dice size wooden shoes i brought with me (guess where i'm from). Go to a local souvenir shop, and see what they sell to tourists.

Try these...
Fridge magnets (of your city, country, etc etc), stick pins for hats, your country's flag stickers, scenic postcards, keychains or suchlike. Whatever you buy, small and flat is better (but I reckon you know this already!!)


Enjoy

...bookmarks, pressed flowers of your native land, war medals, collar/lapel pins, hats (if they can be rolled up and stuffed in a bag), novelty pens etc...
