I live in South Russia (see the map bellow, or feed "Russia, Krasnodarskiy kray, gorod Armavir" to http://maps.google.com/ and see the result).
There are three major airports around my place:
- Pashkovsky Airport Krasnodar (KRR): http://airport.u.nu/KRR;
- Mineralnye Vody Airport (MRV): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mineralnye_Vody_Airport;
- Rostov-on-Don Airport (ROV): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rostov-on-Don_Airport;
of course, I can meet you, if you arrive to Moscow (guess, this would be more simple to you).
I live in my own house and have a guest room for you and a dozen computers for training (that means: one learner for a training period or two, if you don't mind to live together, since the room has only one double-bedded bed, I trained a family: husband and wife in the past and they both were in RE).
btw, South Russia is a very beautiful place: mountains, canyons, hills, ravines, seas, lakes, waterfalls - just a few to say.
so, I invite you to security-training (and camping if you don't mind and we will have free time for this). it's free. you only pay your two-ways tickets to Russia (food, room, etc - is free). I know rus and eng, so you're supposed to talk eng or rus.
if you're interested, PM me here or mail to ida-training#nezumi.org.ru

have over 15 years of software engineering and reverse engineering experience (CD/DVD protections, PE/ELF packers/protectors, CD/DVD copiers), data flow optimization, CPU-specific optimization, compiler specific optimization, debugging code and analyze binary crash-dumps).
Researched malware, developed software/hardware protections, discovered security holes in OSes (Winnows, Linux, xBSD), drivers, applications and x86 CPU, designed a lot of protections to prevent unauthorizing using, optimized code and data structures (x86-asm, C), tested software (including audio/video codecs) and helped to find bugs and fix them, recovered damaged or erased data (HDD, CD/DVD) - just a few to say.
published more than 20 books about system programming, and most of them were translated on English, Chinese, Polish and other language I ever don't know (English editions follow bellow);
published more than 300 articles in Russian magazines (and most of them are filled up with new ideas or my own researches);
