Having been born in Kazakhstan, a former Republic of the Soviet Union, now a separate state, I graduated from Irkutsk State University in Siberia (near the lake of Baikal) and nowadays live in St. Petersburg, one of the most beautiful city in the world widely known for its architecture and museums. Such extended geography gave me a good taste for traveling and feeling what can be specific about any place I visit. Five years in St. Petersburg and professional writing skills let me share with you the most interesting information for visitors, such facts and places which, usually don’t appear in travel guides. Looking forward to hearing from you on what you would like to know about the city. Ivan_rus25@yahoo.com
