Hey, Lory! The end of January isn’t the best time to see Saint P.
Anyway, you can enjoy walking by historical streets (Petrogradsky district, Vasilevsky island, Nevsky prospekt). There are a lot of nice and good quality cuisine bars and restaurants (Mozarella Bar, Grill Station on Electrosila metro). Using Grab, Uber or Gett will facilitate your moving around the city (but early morning and 18-20 pm traffic is hard). Saint P has beautiful metropolitan stations - best time to see them is afternoon. I wish you to see Hermitage museum and Saint Isaac’s cathedral. Don’t forget warm clothes and scarf!

Walking day: You can start from metro station Gorkovskaya (there is mini sights of Spb), then walk around in Petropavlovskaya fortress, go across the Troickij most to the Mars field, then travel to the Chizhik near Inzenerny castle (near is good italian caffe - la celletta). Then across the Nevskyj, visit Kazansky Cathedral, and go to the Dvorcovaja. You can visit some evening Philarmonic, if you like music. Try donuts (pyshki): Griboedov channel 56-58, from Ginza. (Metro station Sennaya) Go to the Kvartirka, on the Malaja Sadovaya street 1, with russian dishes, and interesting atmosphere. Go to the Isaaky cathedral, collonade.
