I don't know what to do about it anywhere.

In all honesty as ironic as it sounds, it's actually much easier to "sort out" Russia ( what needs to be done there under the circumstances,) than the US. That's the way I see it.

I have no idea what to do here in America. It's actually considered a good thing. We honor thieves here.

St Petersburg. Just think. You can actually enjoy a few beers while strolling around too. It's not illegal.

The Russian holidays are starting, and busloads and planeloads of Russians are coming to Finland to celebrate it, because Finland is Winland and the bestest country (bigly, even Trump said Finland is awesome), while Russia sucks balls.

S novym godom my Russian friends!

Hyvää uutta vuotta

do a lot of Finns go and visit St. Petersburg, or is it mostly a one way thing (Russians visiting Finland and not vice versa)

after some research it seems like there are way more Russians visiting Finland than Finns visiting Russia, but then again Russia has way more people.

Russians visiting Finland
2015: 351,788 (0.24% per capita)
2016: 307,127 (0.21% per capita)

Finns visiting Russia
2015: 112,655 (2.05% per capita)
2016: 55,415 (1.01% per capita)
