This is a top pick! ... Russia is that the Russians only speak Russian...no French, or Spanish or English...of course we should have learnt a smattering of Russian, but we didn't, and we cannot read the cyrillic alphabet, so we are definitely in for an interesting few days...it ...
Still in Moscow (with some pics)

Caught in a Snow Shaker
This is a top pick! I got of the train before Erica woke and bought her bread and Yoghurt (admittedly I thought it was milk). Weather is beautiful now and the scenery is getting better and better. Today I had a little of a stomach loosening and although the first visit of ...
What's the time Mr Wolf
This is a top pick! Woke at 9 with a serious hangover all the cans and some serious vodka got us through another long day (and night). At 9am it must have been light for about 4 hours and the shadows were elongated from the trees suggesting after midday. The views are ...

This is a top pick! The mission today was getting my Trans-Mongolian train ticket from the agency it was waiting for me at. That agency is in a suburb south of the river in a non-touristy area. I found it pretty easily and felt good about paying local price (200 pounds) for ...

WATERY AIR ON FIRE

Welcome to Mother Russia!
This is a top pick! I arrive in Moscow in the late afternoon to an email saying that Victor isn't actually in Moscow right now but that I can stay with his girlfriend and her mother just the same. I still have limited options as the one family friend doesn't get to ...

WINTER TRAVELS TO THE BLACK SEA
This is a top pick! ... out of Siberia in the winter. I, of course, didn't listen to them. My stubbornness had once been an inspiration for Nadezda, a Russian girl now following her dreams in Belgium. She and Elina and I, during the Summer of '06, had romanced and ...
60 Above
This is a top pick! ... the same beautiful bright colours and tear drop domes that we saw in Moscow (St Basils) to define the city with a truly Russian flavour. The Transiberian crew have still played a large part in my enjoyment of St Petes, last night was spent having afew ...
