Here at last!

Hey everyone! You'll be happy to know that I am alive and well, in Saint Petersburg at last. Well I've actually been here two full days now, but it's been such an extremely busy and rather disorientating time it feels like oh so much longer. But in a good way! I'm writing from an internet cafe with sticky keyboards, yum, that's about 2 mins walk from the apartment I'm staying at. Close enough that I can hopefully get online often and update this thing. Alright, on to telling you about my trip so far - so much to tell you about... I wrote in a journal over the past few days so the following are some excerpts. Enjoy!
