I spent three weeks at a summer school in Moscow studying Russian language and politics. When booking your flights to Moscow, make sure you take a look at low-cost carriers. I flew into Vnukovo which is one of the smaller and more modern airports …

After 16 months in the UK, it's time to go back to Oz. The long way.

A viable alternative to the usual European destinations - Moscow is only four hours away and is well-served from the UK.

I visited the cities of Moscow and St. Petersburg this past August 2007. Unfortunately I was only there for a short amount of time :( [approximately 6 days, 4 nights]
