Some tips:
- Dress comfortably. Museums involve a lot of walking so wear comfortable shoes. Since the weather in Irkutsk during September could be unpredictable with some rain, it's wise to take an umbrella or a raincoat with you. Do not feel rushed in the museum. Take your time to read about the exhibits, and don’t shy away from asking the museum guides any questions. They usually have a wealth of information to share. At the book café, pick out a book that interests you and share it with your date. It could serve as a conversation starter and a way to learn about each other's tastes.
