Brest - Vladivostok

06/20 - 09/20

Aller - De Brest à Vladivostok
From Brest to Vladivostok - 100% Russia... Well, almost!
Saint-Petersbourg, Moscow, Vladivostok… Cities well known in Europe, full of history and culture.
Names such as Nizhni-Novgorod, Kazan, Irkustk or Baïkal lake may ring a bell to the ones knowing a bit about Russia.

Those who know what are golden ring, Ulyanovsk, Tsugol or Kakassie have probably set a feet on the land of Peter the Great, Yvan the Terrible and Lenin.

 

Dear member of human kind,

Imagine participating a raid where you can make yours all these places, integrate them to your own life. A trip of more than 6.000 miles from the city previously known as Leningrad and having the same destination as the mythic Transsiberian, stopping a few days on another planet – Mongolia. A journey within time, where statues of tsars and the ones of Lenine watch over each other. An insight of the many ethnics living in Russia, a crash course of multiculturalism…

 

This sums up this first exploration mission which will take four months in total. Going from an end of the Old Continent to the other by car, accompanied by other travelers and guided by an exceptional couple which already did this trip five times! A unique opportunity to discover Russia, which will be soon described in details here…

 
Can’t you wait for news from that trip? Keep calm. On this piece of Internet, you’ll find everything your patience needs: my previous trips, a few practical advises, but also some random thoughts, on travel in its broadest sense but not only…
 
Have a good trip!

Vladivostok - Tongrinne

09/20 - 11/20

Retour - De Vladivostok à Tongrinne
From Vladivostok to Tongrinne - coming back the Silk Road way

Do all great things have an end? Coming back from Vladivostok, we’ll make our best to prove no. Much more than just coming back, this trip from Vladivostok to Tongrinne is a whole trip in itself. This time we’ll discover new places in Russia, then an important part of the Silk Road.

See whales, walk in one of the smallest deserts in the world, see Baïkal lake in autumn, dive into the heart of Central Asia, following steps of merchants of the Silk Road. Mountains of Kyrgyzstan and its welcoming people, Uzbekistan and Samarkande… Then Georgia, Armenia and Turkey to enter Europe by Greece.

By the way… Tongrinne might not be the most famous Belgian village. But you’ll find there lovely people. This is the destination of this first mission.
But we’ve just proven that some great things don’t end… So this destination is only the starting point of the second mission!
