Moscow, Russia

Achievement unlocked: Find the hostel in Moscow

So, I arrived here in Moscow around 8am. Of course I had forgotten my hat to the restaurant car, so that was the first thing I had to find in Moscow ;).

I want to remember this feeling. I have no maps, can’t read or speak russian, have no Idea where my hostel is and I feel more free than ever before in my life.

I had 4hours to kill before I could check in my hostel so I decided to get lost just a little bit. Tracked my walk with Everytrail too! (eats battery like hell, so probably not using it a lot from now on). First thing was to find my way to a cafeteria, as I was starwing. The next was to get myself in the heart of Moscow and find internet so I can check on my hostel.

Here you can see how I finally made it to the hostel

Btw, the hostel is just awesome and nicest service too. It’s near Sukharevskaya metro station btw.

Resting up for tonight now.

Went out to find some russian food and vodka for my first night. Followed the recommendation of Vasili from the hostel, found out this place was very comfy and rather cheap for Moscow.

Kahta en vaihda 🙂

Great food, cheap beer, good times!
