It is a beautiful city and reminds me of Paris, just a little more rundown, but they are renovating a lot. I am hoping that we will be able to do it by train, if not there is always the boat as well, so we can do that and stay there three days I think without a visa. Will have to look into it more :)
We should be okay there as while I don't speak Italian or French - I speak the other four too.
Looking forward to it! Really hope St Petersburg works out.
Figured you knew the same 4 languages as me...Plus you know 1 or 2 Finnish words too!

terve!! hehe, no, I dont know 4 languages, you beat me to this. just a bit of Latin, that I had at uni, and forgot long ago.
ps. Tallinn is a sick excuse to Petersberg, ofc, its a tourist city, but doesnt wort it to count as a worthy replacement.
St Petersburg is our goal and I'm pretty sure we can make it happen. We'll be so close in Finland so it makes sense. We love travelling so everywhere is on our list of places to go! Would love to tick Piter off the list.

ps. if you'd like, I could tag you in some of my photo posts dedicated to the city (I use to take part in wednesdaywalks with tattoedjay), sometimes it brings a perspective.
also, may I ask a specific question - you used tag 'travelfeed' in your post, is it better than simply 'travel' (which I used to rely on)?..
Please tag me - Was going to follow you anyway.
I'm not sure about the viability of the #travelfeed thing. I think the tag has a following and so tagging it exposes the post to more people. I use it sometimes and just #travel other times. I'm only a small account and need as much exposure as I can get so I use it.

we all lill fishes :) I added you in discord, it easy to communicate there... the other local steemians I know, except madlenfox, are @bambuka (he is a wood carver and photo-passion, a person with intresting inner world) and @tatdt, she is like Cartie Bresson, living on the streets and chronographs the city life. more or less, her blog is about the city.
btw, june-july is perfect time period - in terms of good weather, because of the famous 'white nights', etc. it wouldnt be exxageration to say it is the peak of the tourist season here. and not the least, in the start of the summer my job provides me more time, which does matter.
well... I am bad at long-term planning, but I'll be looking forward!
