Bon, quand je me suis reveille hier, et bien j'etais arrive.  J'aurais aime voir apparaitre la cote sur le pont, mais bon, je suis un dormeur.  Pas de probleme a la douane, mais je ne voyais pas pourquoi il y en aurait eu.  C'est plus la sortie du pays qui m'inquiete...  J'…

We arrived in St. Petersburg on the train.  After crossing the border we were a bit concerned that Linda`s visa had not been stamped properly but there was nothing we could do as the passport officials had left the train before we got our passports back. We managed to negotiate the metro…

Photos.

We spend two days in St. Petesburg.  It was a marvelous experience.  At the port we were greeted by a nice band that played very nice music during the morning.   During the first day we visited the city went to several interesting places like the Church on the Spilled Blood…

We arrived at St Petersburg Bus Station ahead of time at 4am in the morning. None of us had Russian Rubles with us, so taking the Metro is out of the question. We managed to find a cab drive who is willing to take our USD and drives us to the hostel. We have to wait until 8am for the hostel to chec…

I arrived the 2nd of august in Moscow, with two heavy bags. After the stress of boarding the plane I was looking forward to my time here, but... At the airport I had to wait for 2 hours to show my passport and get my bags, well, welcome to Russia! Monday my niece arrived from a small vil…

Samen met een vriend van mij Erik ben ik twee weken waar Rusland geweest. Vanuit Düsseldorf zijn we naar Moskou gevlogen. Naast ons zat een Russisch meisje, Olga die een tijdje in Duitsland had gestudeerd. En die nu weer op weg naar huis was. Ze bood ons aan om ons wat rond te leiden door Mos…

From Minsk I took the train with the plan to stop off in Smolensk prior to heading for Moscow.   My understanding was that I would be able to receive the all important entry form at the border with Belarus.  However, the train kept on going and I found the next main stop after M…

We pulled into Finland station, famous for being the site of Lenin's reentry to Russia in 1917, rather late-- 8 or 9pm--and therefore it was entirely dark.  Stepping off the train was even more intimidating than stepping on-- there was a sudden awareness of just how ob…

I visited Helsinki & Saint Petersburg at the end of 2008 & the beggining of 2009, which was a great fun.

Here ive decided to write a little about my own city - upon request,plus, personally, i think thats a good idea, so here you are..Moscow is a gorgeous city with 12 million people, it is alive 24 hours a day. On the streets, especially in summer you can see lots of tourists and cute russian girls. There are some many places to visit, starting from the Kremlin, continuing with museums, then caffes and ending up in a club. This place is not worth to be just read about - it's worth seeing!!

I spent three weeks in Russian mountains with mountaineering. From Czech Republic we rode by bus. First we override Poland, than Ukraine and after four days we come finally to Russia. Here are some photos I made there.

Today it's time to go home again. In the morning I say goodbye to Barbara and pack my bags. I take the metro to the Red square to say a last goodbye. after a rest in the sun I take the metro to the end of the green line and there I take a minibus to the airport.  All this without any prob…
