Most European countries won't allow you to change your place of residence without sufficient documentation of your residence in a different country, e.g. work permits, proof of residence in new country, etc. Otherwise it would be all to easy to skip on paying taxes in your home country.

Perhaps in Russia it's a bit... easier?

It is easy, just not all people know about it. Rule is simple - not be tax resident and spend < 6 months in your home country. Other proofs aren't enforced afaik. It's how it works in Russia.

You are largely relying on just not being caught. Have you asked a tax advisor about this?

There's entire movement of perpetual travelers and laws clearly state it's legal.

I am familiar with PTs and I have been traveling since 2007.

It might be perfectly legal for Russian nationals. Since I am not Russian, I do not know with certainty, which is why I ask if you had checked with an expert.
