Internet Kloob
This is the internet kloob we used throughout our trip to St. Petersburg to check email and make hotel arrangements. It’s just down the street from Sennaya Ploshchad. (The place where the subway cart was.)
From my experience, internet kloobs in Russia usually consist of a small room with 10-15 computers and 5-10 adolescent boys playing video games. This one offered the added bonus of a coffee vending machine in the corner that we tested out on several occasions.
What was your experience at an internet kloob like?
(And yes, the proper translation would be internet club, or internet cafe, but I wanted to convey the slight silliness I feel when I pronounce this in Russian.)
One final thought - I’ve looked at this picture many times, and it wasn’t until I posted it that I realized ‘internet’ is written in English and ‘club’ is written in Russian. Maybe that’s where the silliness comes from!
