After nearly three weeks on the road, countless days on the train and constantly changing location, I was beyond happy that my final train journey came to an end. Don’t get me wrong, experiencing the Transiberian railway was an unforgettable experience but it’s not the easiest of trips. I’ll admit that I was tired of moving every 2-3 days, so when our train arrived in Beijing and I stepped on the platform for the last time, it felt good.
Okay, okay, it’s here! This is what you’ve all been waiting for; photos and stories from Mongolia! And they won’t disappoint. Out of Russia, Mongolia and China, this country is the one I get asked about the most and understandably so. It is majorly different from anything else we Westerners know and has the most interesting nomad lifestyle.
Before I went on a trip of a lifetime on the Transiberian railway in July 2019, I explored two of Russia’s most known cities; Moscow and St Petersburg. Many of you have been asking for more photos of the trip so I decided to do a blog photo series. The pictures are hundreds and the human time concentration span is short (ahem, you know it’s true, mine is too) so I’m splitting them up into four separate blog posts. Following the chronicle of the journey, this first blog post will concentrate on the trip’s first two stops.
