white nights surely you must see a huge influx of tourists coming to the city just the greatest actually yeah i know and it's still what background i come from from finland from hills and you know we have exactly the same thing but they have done so quick joke with the white knights here so i don't understand that why people chose some petersburg instead of feels like it's just because upon fim i say that but the great job well done great great great p.r. texans marketing oxen's this is this is the time of the year to come here if you want to enjoy some. it was a speed of four you know so i'm regarding cultural activities it seems that the list is absolutely endless from it's a home office or captains palace to boat trips it's amazing yes that's true but on the other hand i would love to say that the there are no younger generation who comes to experience life here experience like life. they don't even need those

excuses that there's a palace next to that next to the hold out so they just want to see how the life goes here they rather go or clapping you know this is the great city also that it's going to for all worst most top so all in all it's wonderful it's great to be you all the way out best of luck with your childhood on top thank you it was nice to meet you too ok. moving on and what other hotels and restaurants i was mentioning in sim petersburg to backpackers there are some great places to stay in the north the capital which would burn a hole in your pocket location hostel situated in the heart of the city offers wonderful views a palace square from its windows bring prices here something just six hundred rubles that's roughly around twenty dollars a night the concepts hostel as they call it also goes contempt we design and a friendly and international atmosphere not only will we be given a bed for the night but as the host who supports many of the state projects they

off became the n.h.l.'s highest paid goaltenders that when he joins the philadelphia flyers this former russian is currently on holiday in his home country which in vancouver reports starts a thirty one year old founder time os on his skills to a new generation netminders. it isn't very often that you get to see any of his ghaleb in russia and this is unlikely to change in the near future copper he signed a nine year fifty one million dollar contract with the philadelphia flyers in the usa the pressure will certainly be on the russian but he says he'll be up to the task we have a great team now and the team have experienced guys have a great line of defense who are the fastest players. i hope are missing these i hope that's why i came to feel it to help this team win the stanley cup because they're long. since the seventy four yeah like. thirty years from. thirty one but it's goal should be entering his prime he has no intention to

hang up his skates of the moment but he does have one eye on the future the flyers netminder set up a goaltending summer camp for budding youngsters in moscow and his hometown of tully arsene on the volga river and its goal of says this is something he'd like to continue when he eventually retires it shows my idea but we'll see you know it's one way to go it's knowing more and more in here so i send a contract and i hope that my being my mind there and i hope it's the. culture. the next generation of goaltenders took a chance to learn the tricks of the trade from one of the world's best maxime was fifteen and troubled two hundred fifty kilometers from his home city vienna sagal to take part in the coaching clinic and he hopes one day to make it into the big leagues himself as she watches them because it's really important for me to be able to learn from someone like is

a great goalie and i'm sure he can pass on some great tips. when it comes to coaching his goal of has endless enthusiasm and is willing to pass on his secrets for hours to bowser interested unlike in north america come. sense of coaching clinics given by professionals at the peak of their powers is still a relatively new concept in russia. however the philadelphia net mind wants to change this and united states. pretty much every respect our players respect himself hockey schools and because they worry about the hockey they. help their kids to develop themselves you know they go months without wise to hold to play hockey and how to. handle the bog bands and defensemen all forward dore gold it's it's very popular i don't know i don't know why. not so many camps here in russia i wonder about this will be because we

where so playing n.h.l. we care for so much to give to give and give it to. because we know so often then we've got to share even proved to be a fantastic experience for the kids and i put chance to be coached by one of the heroes as well as go of who got just as much enjoyment out of a day he'll have a few more weeks back home before heading off back to the states to open up a new translation he's talking career when the new n.h.l. season gets underway in october which of i'm hopefully not see last go. and that's all. i think. culture is that so much as i was about it and i think you have a really cool this is the lord me are getting some are selling christian rock jesus

jeans and even jesus pill is this the right way to promote christian.
