Romanovien kaupungissa Yekaterinburgissa

Yekaterinburgiin saavuttiin yön selässä, selvisimme 23 tunnin junamatkasta yllättävän helposti. Sitten taksilla hostimme luo, jonka kotona ei sitten ihan hirveesti ollutkaan tavaraa. Vitsailtiin sen asunnon minimalistisuudesta, mutta olihan siellä sängyksi aukeava sohva ja vanha levysoitin,...

Pikavisiitilla Vladimirissa

Ollaan vaan junaa vaihtamassa täällä Vladimirissa. Kun myöhästyttiin aamulla Moskovassa junasta niin aikaa kaupungin katseluun jäikin aika vähän. Mutta hienoja katedraaleja ja oikein kodikas pizzapaikka loydettiin parin tunnin kiertelyllä. Kuten myos tämä nettikahvila juna-aseman vierestä, jossa...

Punaisen torin taivaltajat

Moskova mielessäin. Matka jatkunut jo kauemmas Suomesta yhä itään päin minne matkustetaan vielä tuhansia kilometrejä. Kartalla näyttää mielestäni että ollaan jo aika kaukana, varsinkin kun teemme matkaa vain maitse; vanhaan tyyliin junilla ja busseilla. Moskovan hostimme on ylen ystävällinen...

Venäläisellä bussilla Pietariin

Rajan yli kiidettiin hitaasti venäläisellä bussilla ja saavuttiin Pietariin myöhään toissailtana. Matka oli junailua kiinnostavampaa ja takuulla halvempaa, bussilla pääsi kahdellakympillä. Tervetulokomitea Pietarin päässä oli mukava ja päästiin heti väsyneet matkaajat kuumaan suihkuun ja...

Last day!

Well, this is it. It's finally here and I can't really believe it. I definitely feel like I've assimilated with Moscow. It's been an amazing almost two months. I've learned so much, and met so many wonderful people here. I will miss you Moscow! But I will certainly be back!

So sorry for getting behind

Hello All, I'm terribly sorry that I haven't had a chance to update my blog since my trip to St. Petersburg. I've been busy with classes and excursions etc. With only a week and a half left I'll try my best to get it up to date, if not then I will have plenty of time upon my return. Also I have...

Kremlin

Today we went to the Kremlin to see the Russian collection of historical treasures. It was very interesting. We saw the collection of royal garments worn by many of the Russian Tzars and Tzaritsas, their thrones and crowns. Their beautiful carriages (many of which were gifts from other nations)....

Vladimir and Suzdal

Today we woke up and left for Суздаль (Suzdal) and Владимир (Vladimir) two medieval Russian towns. The bus ride there was long and most everyone slept on the way there. I was awake for part of it and I saw some of the beautiful rural scenery that Russia has to offer. Although the scenery was...

Ballet etc

Today after classes we all went to see a ballet. It was at Tchaikovsky theater. The name of it was "Игоря Моисеева" "Igorya Moiseeva". It started off as a tango ballet, which was a little weird to be honest. But the second half was a mix of traditional Russian dancing with some contemporary...
