PRACTICE RUSSIAN WITH A FRIEND IN RUSSIA Are you interested in Russian culture, language, literature, poetry and do you experience a fascination for Russia? Then I invite you to come and visit! I am a Russian male, and a graduated biologist by profession, my age is 26, and I like to be a tour guide for foreign visitors coming to St. Petersburg. Apart from the usual places of interest, I can guide you along unusual, unknown, romantic monuments in and around St Petersburg (like the decaying palaces of Strel'ny), and inform you about their role in Russian history. For those interested I organize combined courses in Russian poetry and literature and excursions to corresponding literary sites (individuals and small groups of up to 5 persons). I myself write and publish poetry, and I am an artist of modern painting (which I have for sale). I can also bring you into contact with artists and authors, and other interesting people. Tickets to a variety of cultural events are available for extra charge. I can find lodging and board for you, as a paying guest, in a Russian family, in the first place my own family. Prices are low, and in addition you will have the occasion to get acquainted with Russians and to become friends. I can also book hotel rooms: prices will of course be higher. My prices are very reasonable; they can be sent to you on demand by e-mail. Those interested can receive more extensive documentation by e-mail. I can also provide recommendations from earlier guests. Tempus fugit!! Don't hesitate! PISHITE PO- RUSSKI!!!! ATTENTION: I`d like to protect myself from spam.
