just got back from the most amazing overland journey of a life time ... started in st.petersburg where I met our Honcho (local Guru) & others travelling on the 21 day vodkatrain trip. was a little bit nervous before the trip ... not know what to expect ... but couldn't have arranged a better trip myself! got to travel through russia / mongolia / china with a fun and VERY diverse group of 12 from all around the world (all 18-35). after a couple of days in st.petes we went on the overnight train to moscow ...
