I am obsessed with right action, righ speech, right life.
“The only people I would care to be with now are artists and people who have suffered: those who know what beauty is, and those who know what sorrow is: nobody else interests me.”
Oscar Wilde De Profundis
My parents came to pay me a visit for the last few days… There was a ballet, a visit to the Ermitage, and the first snow of the year involved… It’s seriously starting to get cold here.
Although my conservative taste in architecture makes me favour St Petersburg over Moscow, I have felt that the social life is ten times more buzzing there. Thank you to Kate, Macha and Muriel for making my stay hectic, fun and inspiring.
I want to remember also a wonderful tradition consisting of playing a particular piece of music at the station when the train departs or arrives at St Petersburg. Anyone knows what it’s called by the way? I can’t find the info online.
Anyway, time to go “home” (to Petersburg)…
I enjoyed so many details of the design of this Stalinian appartment (one of the Moscow Seven Sisters) on Kudrinskaya Square.
Let’s flashback for a second. Finally finished editing this little fun video celebrating last summer’s adventure.
I haven’t felt this happy in a long time.
