The final leg in my Euro-trip has me staying a week in Moscow with my friend Nick, a former student of mine. This place is very different from the rest of Europe. The Russians here don't seem very friendly to visitors, very few people speak English, and the overall mood in Moscow feels much more somber than anywhere else I've been on this trip. Regardless, I'm having an awesome time touring the famous places with a native speaker and hanging out with Nick & his friends.

We're heading to St. Petersburg tonight for two days, then returning to Moscow late Tuesday evening before I fly back to Munich for one final night in Europe on Wednesday. I'm super excited to see SP -- everything I've heard about that city has been extremely positive, so I'm happy we made time to swing by for a few days.

This trip has been pretty exhausting, but I'm having the time of my life and am eternally grateful to poker for allowing me this amount of personal freedom in my 20s. I've played very little poker in the past 3 weeks and I'm dying to jump back in, so expect more poker-related content in the near future. �´�¾ '��²�¸�´�°�½�¸'�!
