The Enlightened Traveler: Bargains Abound As Russia's Economy Falters

Your dream vacation to Moscow awaits. Or at least it's a lot more affordable now.

The U.S. dollar, Euro, and British pound buy as much as 50% more in Russia than they did a year ago. The New York Post reports that rooms at the Four Season St. Petersburg are as low as a bargain $185 per night.

Similarly cheaper rates can also be found on flights from the U.S. and Europe on Aeroflot, the national airline. Note that it may be harder to book desirable dates and times because Delta, Lufthansa, Etihad and other major carriers are reducing or eliminating flights to Russia due to declining demand.

  2. Pregnant summer Leggings wholesale
    Whether pregnant women can wear leggings is related to gestational weeks. If it is in the first three months of pregnancy, it is ok to wear leggings, because at this time the fetus is still very small and does not show her pregnancy. Wearing leggings will not have an impact, but the premise is not to wear them often. But to the middle and late pregnancy, has been pregnant, fetal development speed is relatively fast, in this stage can not wear leggings, otherwise it will affect fetal development.
