This feels like attention seeking behavior.
Huh? No I’m looking to find people who have done it
The media has been working overtime telling me Moscow & St. Petersburg were not on your bucket list. Thank you for clarifying! Safe travels.
This changes everything I thought I knew about Consultant
So many questions:
Why would the media make any comments on your bucket list?
What is a milestone trip?
How much of your personality are you going to make this?
I visited both several times pre-Covid/imperialist invasion of Ukraine, but both cities have their merits. St. Petersburg was standout for me - just preferred the vibe there.
I personally don’t see the point of making the effort - IMHO there are much easier and worthwhile places to visit across Europe.
Ok, gl
It's because Russia is a shithole. Really interesting history, and Moscow and St. Petersburg are beautiful, it's their government is abhorrent. 99.9% of tourists are fine, just have to pray you aren't in the 0.1% who will get snatched from the street to be held hostage so the Russian government can trade you back to the US for an actual war criminal.
So, did your attention seeking post give you the attention you so clearly crave?
I don’t know - there haven’t been random Americans detained, unless you count drug trafficking or beating your girlfriend to be political prisoner offenses.
Went to Moscow and St Petersburg in 2013 and it was awesome; truly a unique country with so much history. Probably wouldn’t go right now though.
What’s your question?
Moskow and santP are safer that your city. take an umbrella to SaintP cuz it can be rainy. Best food with reasonable price and a lot of historical places.
I went in October 2019, had a great time.
Would I go now, nope. Not worth the risk and not supporting that country in any shape or form.
