On the Trans Siberian
... The carriage ladies are not wearing the stereotypical Russian fur hat as pictured on the LP Trans Sib as it is warmer now. My last compartment mate is called Alla and she is very enthusiastic in teaching me Russian. So far I've learnt 6 new words but I forgot them already! It's hard!!
