Hey Guys, why should we travel with Trans-Siberian Railway through Russia? Why the heck not to jump into a plane? Do you know the expression -The Russian Soul-? Lets find it and feel it! Its just the best way to search for it between local people and find out their way of life. And by the way I am suffering from fear of flying :P :D

Feel free to take a bed in the 3th class, this is the best way to get in touch with locals. To be honest it was a bit stinky. No wonder 69 people are fitting in one wagon. I enjoyed it!

The Trans-Siberian Railway ( Russian are writing it in cyrillic letter: Транссиби́рская магистраль) is a network of railways connecting Moscow with the Russian East. The length is 9,289 kilometers (5,772 miles), it is the longest railway road in the world. There are connecting roads into Mongolia, China and even North Korea. It is connecting Moscow with Vladivostok since 1916, and is still being expanded.

Do you feel hungry? Taste some national Russian Food at the Restaurant Wagon

National Beer Baltica 7 (bitter beer) with salat and -Pyroshki- I love it. Kind of dumplings with potatoes, onions and egg in it.
I am obsessed with food :D

Gerne ..... Du hast ja noch eine ganz schön lange Strecke vor dir. Wenn du noch Platz im Gepäck hast und für jemanden etwas mitnehmen kannst, dann bitte deine Strecke einfach mal auf https://www.bringhand.de/ an. Kann ja sein, dass sich jemand russischen Speck oder Kaviar aus dem weiten Osten wünscht :-D.

I was just writing my travel diary, no one can read my scripture, even I struggle sometimes :)

All I caught was "im Buss eingestiegen" :D

Nice photos!
