More photos and words from my recent trip to Russia.
Did you know that Russia is the largest country in the world? It covers more than one-eighth of the Earth’s inhabited land area. For this reason it was impossible to see and do much in my short 10-day trip to Moscow and St. Petersburg, but I sure did try!
In sum, I ate, I shivered, I had my edges snatched and breath taken away by the stunning scenery and architecture.
And, as always, I documented the journey on good ole’ Instagram.
So here’s a round-up of all my IG posts for the trip, for those who either aren’t on IG (you’re missing out!) or who are on it but for some unknown reason don’t follow my feed (shame on you! Just kidding!)
With that said, I must admit that I’ve really begun to enjoy these round-up posts, if only because they provide a pretty thorough, fairly chronological timeline of what I’ve done and seen in a particular destination! If you’re digging this post, you can check out my previous IG blow-by-blows on Bolivia (click here) and Jamaica (click here).
Ready? Here we go!
Got my rubles, tourist visa, and multiple layers of clothing for the cold. Russia, here I come!

Love this post!! Your photos are gorgeous and the captions are the perfect mix of informative and funny! I want to visit Russia so much!
Wow Russia looks absolutely stunning! I have to admit that it is on my don’t care to visit list mainly because of the racism and homophobia. It isn’t about boycotting a place, and more I don’t want to go somewhere that they don’t want me. I know it isn’t all Russians but enough that I don’t want to spend my money there and rather go somewhere else where the people welcome tourists with a darker hue. So glad you went but I still won’t be going any time soon. Rather go to hundreds of other places first.
WOW!! Those pictures are just awesome. Crazy architecture. Stunning….

Great photos, Oneika! Out of curiosity, did you experience much racism at all while in Russia? The reason I ask is that I am in an interracial relationship, as well, and my significant other is a bit concerned about any racism that might be directed towards here. I have been telling her that it probably isn’t nearly as bad as she thinks, and that it is no different than anywhere else in the world. What was your opinion while travelling to Moscow and St. Petersburg?
Some great snaps – love the combination of the old buildings and the soviet icons also. One of those countries really want to visit.
