RUSNOCKIA II - TRAVEL AND CONTACT INFO

In one week from the moment I write these words, we will be on British Airways Flight #294, winging our way to London's Heathrow Airport. We are set to arrive there at 6:55 a.m. local time (1:55 a.m. New York time).

Then, we board BA #878 at 9:20 a.m. and arrive in St. Petersburg, Russia at 3:35 p.m.

We have rented a flat for one month through Oksana's Ltd. in St. Petersburg. We are staying at the Nevsky 88 Apartments.  Our address from August 1 through 31 is:

            Nevsky Prospect 88, Flat E

            St. Petersburg, Russia

            Postal index  191025

            Telephone: +7 (812) 579-2878

From September 1 through the end of October, we are staying in a rented flat in Moscow through City Realty Russia. Our address will be:

          11/13 Bolshoy Afanasievskiy Lane

          14th Floor, Apartment #113

          Moscow, Russia  

          Postal index 119019

          Telephone: +7 (495) 691-5413

Our plan is to purchase a Russian mobile phone shortly after we arrive. I will take my EuroBuzz mobile in case of emergencies, but in Russia, calls cost $4 per minute, as opposed to the 79 cents per minute in Italy and France. Incoming texts are free to me.

Be aware, placing a call to us on the EuroBuzz mobile while we are in Russia will incur international calling rates on your phone bill, as the EuroBuzz phone is registered as a United Kingdom number.

Simply dial 011 (the dial out code for the USA), then the UK country code (44) followed by our number:
7867-329735.

We will suspend our U.S. Cellular phone service around 4:00 p.m. Tuesday, July 31.
