I've little money and can't participate in many excursions. What something special can you recommend me?

Don’t worry Robert! Smile

There are lots of free activities like parties, presentations, picnics and so on. Many activities are cheap enough (local museums, cinemas). You can visit St. Petersburg by the way to Petrozavodsk. Still I would recommend you the excursion to the open air museum Kizhi, it is 65 euro but this place is worth to visit! Exclamation

I have already been to Petrozavodsk two times and I must confirm, that Kizhi is really worth seeing (unlike Kivach, hahah) ! I fell in love with that island, even if I´m not particularly interested in architecture, I just like nice things around me. The feeling of the island is special...trust me! And if you don´t have money for some trips, you still can hang over and chat with the local people, stroll the city and have fun:) It´s for free and the best language school, you can ever attend! And you can always buy a train ticket, go to some village and have a wonderful trip in a Karelian countryside:)

Hi Beta,
Thank you for your message Very Happy

! The idea of taking train and visiting some Karelian places is very good! There are lots of wonderful nooks around Petrozavodsk where you can take great pictures, enjoy nature, dream about something pleasant and just relax Wink

Hello, guys!!! Very Happy

Actually I'm not interested much in sightseeing. I mean it IS exciting but I'd rather go work out; swim in a swiming pool or go to a gym.
Idea

Oh, are three such options in Petrozavodsk?? Question

Tasha, of course there are such options Razz

. There is one modern swimming pool in the center of the city and lots of gyms, you can choose the nearest to your home one Wink

!
Of course you are free to choose what to do and to visit, but I am sure you will enjoy going to cafes, bars and clubs with other students Very Happy

. Some excursions are really very interesting, but you can decide what to visit upon your arrival in Petrozavodsk Exclamation
