Early September this year I plan 2-3 weeks escapade in Russia all the way down to Lake Baikal on a TransSiberian Railway.
Just wonder now, if there’s anyone having similar plans, willing to join me along the route…
Roughly saying the itinerary goes as follows: Moscow (3-4 days) – Yekaterinburg (2 days) – Krasnoyarsk (2 days) – Irkutsk – Olkhon Island (2-3 days) – Listvyanka – Ulan Ude (2 days).
(Severobaikalsk, north side of the lake remains an alternative, depending on the weather, time schedule & local transport). I’m a relaxed, easy going guy in my late 20’s, ready to compromise on details when necessary & rather experienced with Asian backpacking… also speak some decent basic Russian which’s always helpful, I guess.
For more details regarding the budget, etc plz contact me at damian30a@hotmail.com

Hi Damian,

Have you booked your train tickets already? I am starting the journey in St Petersburg around the 24th August but would be interested in meeting up for part of the route. I have not arranged tickets yet, but will spend a couple of weeks in Russia beforehand so will probably book them when I'm there.

It would be interesting to hear you confirmed itinery?

Thanks
Sue
