Jan 2017

it's just that I LOVE St Pete.


Mariinsky Theaters, St Petersburg Philharmonia, Russian Museum, Hermitage, Alexandrinsky , Bolshoi, Alexandrinsky, Mikhaylovsky Theatre... and on and on.. It is like no other city on earth as far as culture is concerned.

Of course, some here will probably wack me for being "Pro-Ruussian."
