go to Russia.

Well AFS not gonna work. But I think lions will. also gonna try lithuania tho. It’s not the same but… Yea I should have updated yesterday when i was 100% positive russia in december-march 2009. Will see…

AFS rang back today and I think it was good news but dammit everyone was talking loudly where i checked the message and I COULDN’T HEAR! Will try ring tomorrow but I’ll sound a bit silly if I didn’t even listen to what they said ARGH
I think they said 3 months august tho :S

I rang AFS to see if they could make any exceptions…
But seems unlikely
Will have to try plan B

I would love to go to Russia but i am fearful of not knowing the language and getting mixed up in something and thrown in a russian jail or something! I always think that it is a dark and scary place but idk? Any insights from those of you who have been?

I went to St. Peterburg and Moscow on a 10 day cruise. My favorite place was definitely St. Petersburg, especially the Hermitage museum. They have artworks there that I never knew existed. I also attended a ballet performance

Moscow was like any big city. Of course you have to visit the Kremlin. I would like to go back and visit some of the out of the way villages along the way between the two great cities.

Going in 2 weeks!!!!!! (finally!)

spent the summer of 2001 in St. Pete, on a study abroad trip for school. lived with the sweetest Russian lady ever. possibly the best thing i’ve ever done.

i need about 7 grand.

I’m 1/8th Russian (great-grandfather on my mother’s side), and I’ve always been mesmerised by the beautiful buildings in St Petersburg and Moscow. I intend to visit during my world trip in a few years’ time.

Yup looking at going in the near future when I get to do that crazy thing people do called vacation… Hey maybe I’ll pick up a wife as a souvenir… just kidding….
