Hi

I'm moving to St Petersburg in early January. I've visited three times previously, and have lived in Russia for four years previously too. So I know a fair bit of what to expect.

So, just wondering if any locals have any practical advice or inside knowledge that would be helpful to this Englishman. I know all about the weather, the language etc - but not the inner workings of SP life.

Thanks!

Hi Englishman (and a Geordie I presume - Newcastle by chance?)

I'm in Spb and have also lived here for 4 years now. You are probably here already, but if not, I'd be happy to answer any questions!

Also, I have a Fb group/blog that may interest you. xxxx
