St Petersburg is located at 59 degrees 57' North (roughly on the same latitude as Oslo, Norway, the southern tip of Greenland and Seward, Alaska). Due to such
a high latitude the sun does not go under the horizon deep enough for the sky to get dark during the end of may until the beginning of July.
Night turns almost into day during this period.
An old legend says that during this period there is a bigger chance to fall in love.
In other parts of some Northern countries the legend says that you have to pick 7 specific wild flowers and lays them under your pillow. The person you will dream about that night is the one you’re going to marry.
Vadim and Alexandra met each other on the Internet and after a longer period chatting they finally met. There first date they spend at the Saint Pete theatre, It was love on first sight.. Today they live in the outskirts of Saint Petersburg in a place called Lomonosov.
The area is surrounded of the old majestic palaces of Peter the Great. During the summer the couple is walking in the late light evenings and spending time together just enjoying the white nights.
Vadim works as an engineer and Alexandra as a psychologist in Saint Petersburg.
