Holidays in Russia
Mar 14^th, 2024 at 5:18am

Ever thought of a holiday in Russia?
Would Sophia, Gordon and VIC extend to Russia from Nihon for some cheap shopping and duty-free Vodka?
Well spare a thought for the poor idiots who think Russia is a great place to visit and where not talking about the atrocious driving skills of Russians that you see in dash-cam clips.

In Russia, as in any country in the world, there are interesting things that can be studied and admired.

There are many different peoples living there and there are many diverse natural landscapes.

I am writing quite obvious things here, and if you do not have a biased negative opinion about Russia, then all this is easy to understand.

(The link in the first post of the topic is not functioning for me and therefore I cannot see what is contained there.)

Quote:

This is the true story of two twenty-year old Australians who travelled for fourteen months on recumbent bicycles from Russia, across Siberia and Mongolia, to Beijing.

It is as much a story of perseverance, passion, and belief as it is about the people and remarkable landscapes of Siberia and Mongolia. Tim and Chris are not just fearless adventurers but philosophers on wheels, willing and able to open themselves up to everything from the voice of the Steppes to the Russian villagers and the nomads of the Gobi desert.

Like the Ukrainian (Baltic, Armenian, Polish etc) Tavel Agencies say:

Visit Russia - Before Russia Visits You!
