My time here is winding down, and I've actually done a lot the past few weeks! To note some of the more substantial things:
- I visited the Hermitage again with some friends.
- We went on a tour of the Baltika Brewery.
- We also went on a tour of Yusopov Palace which was so beautiful! This was also where Rasputin was murdered.
- I went to my first Anticafe and loved it.
- CIEE celebrated Thanksgiving!
- I saw Swan Lake at the Mikhailovsky.
- We had a tour of the Russian Museum.
- I went to a conversation group with Russians that are learning English.
I didn't take photos of some of these things (either they weren't allowed or you had to pay), but here's my attempt to document the past two-ish weeks in pictures. Some of them are stolen from my friend Lauren, and the 3 of the Yusopov Palace are from google haha. Enjoy!
