Btw thats viva saint petersburg in russian.
So I finally got to russia and i start my train trip in a few days from moscow. St. Petersburg is absolutely amazing. Its like europe meets Russida since Peter the Great was a big fan of daish architecture. at least thats what the guide told me on the boat.
I got into the airport and damned if i was going to get the metro at 11 at night. the taxi wasn't too expensive and it only took 30 minutes. that was probably due to him doing 110 down main streets where everyone else was doing 50.
Got to my hostel and immediately started talking to one of the other guys in my room. ended up heading out for pizza and then going on a midnight cruise along the rivers of saint petersburg. it was amazing.
today i visited the peterhof which is the summer palace of peter the great. there were gold fountains and opulent architecture everywhere u looked. finished up the day by visiting a few of the local cathedrals which were equally opulent.
till next time.
