So a quick post as we leave Stockholm and easy access to internet (the Stockholm post will come later, promise.) We’re on a ferry for two nights heading to St Petersburg with a day out in Helsinki tomorrow. Very exciting. We wanted to thank everyone so far for putting us up, dining us and calming our worries about leaving Europe!
And a special thanks to my colleagues/friends at OCF whose generous leaving gift paid for this water borne leg of the journey!
Edit: Turns out the title is not the Russian way of saying cheers – it’s a tourist trap 😛 There is no special phrase as you should toast something in particular.
Всего наилучшего для путешествий по России. Полегче на водку!
Already using the trans-siberian book btw, it’s got a good section on St Petersburg
Boy Voyage guys!! You brighten our days with your posts so keep them coming. We are all thinking of you both, Take Care xx
Thanks Caroline! Installed in a coffee shop in St Petersburg now. ?
