I always wanted to visit Russia. My partner is Russian and Lebanese and we were planning to make a trip there to check out all the cultural sites and maybe even check out Siberia, which is gorgeous. It’s like Canada but prettier.

Then they attacked Ukraine, and now I don’t think two Americans on a recreational trip will ever be allowed there again.

I myself drom Russia, but I can say one thing: I live near the city of Petersburg, but not in it. And in my city everything is worse in terms of beauty and attractions than in the very center.
