Being so close to Russia, and having the opportunity, it would almost be stupid no to visit this mighty country! And why not doing it in the best way: with ESN! 
ESN organizes trips to Russia (Moscow & St. Petersburg or only St. Petersburg), both during the fall and spring.
Fall trips are going to take place:
Moscow & St. Petersburg: 3.-10.10.2011
St. Petersburg: 6.-10.10.2011
Trip #1 - Ferry +train trip to St Petersburg and Moscow, Mon-Mon 3.-10.October.2011 Price from 375 €. This trip requires a Russian visa, for which you need your passport also. Russian visa costs in average 70 € so the trip in total costs 445 €.
Trip # 2, ''Visa-free'' boat trip to St Petersburg, Thu-Mon 6.-10.October.2011, Price from 230 €.
You'll get accommodation in a double room of a 3 star hotel. It worth repeating that if you're only going to St Petersburg you don't need a visa only a valid Passport (EU ID card is definitely not enough) otherwise all the other information (the cost of visa, insurance, additional fee for single room,...) are mentioned when you're booking online!
The sign-up for the Russian trips will start on THU 15th of September at 19.00 on the following link.

Also don't forget to click on the box for the bus trip to Helsinki (because we're leaving from Turku obviously) while booking (+ 5 euro)!
Drink some energy drink, because ESN is going to take to to the country that never sleeps!
