Yes, soon in the train from Helsinki to
St.Petersburg. The trains from Helsinki to St.Petersburg are not so nostalgic
as in older times...
...with nostalgic curtains and Russian
champagne. Can you imagine, they serve nowadays small bottles of sparkling wine
from abroad in Russian trains from Helsinki to St.Petersburg? And the sparkling
wine comes from elsewhere as from Russia…But anyway, you can eat there at least
traditional Russian (and Finnish) food, as in older days. Well, those good old
days are maybe gone, now or forever…
And to finalize this nostalgic moment of
mine…Listen to the tune from the
legendary Russian artist Alla Pugatcheva, the tune is called “Harlequin” (Skip Add) and comes
from the 80’s. Well, after this I though change my tune to the more modern Russian rock, listen to Zemfira.
As the trains to St.Petersburg called “Allegro” are now modern and it takes only 3,5 hours to get from Helsinki to St.Petersburg. In older days more or less 7 hours...Happy trip to me
and to you to Russia…
By the way...in incoming days you will get tips concerning the traineeship possibilities for students in Russia, hear from a professional get-together of Finnish employers, CIMO and Finnish students in St.Petersburg. You will also get some news, and tips concerning cultural issues in St.Petersburg. Some of them may be something else that the most common ones... We will see what comes up, you never know when we are talking about Russia!
