On The Train Through Siberia

I’m finally doing something with all of the videos I took on my Superheadz Harinezumi camera; you can see the other ones I made here (Manitoba Skies), here (Travelling Through Southeast Asia, though I want to re-edit this one so that’s it shorter and with better music), here (My India), and here (The Mulvey Flea Market). All of these ones were taken in Russia in October 2010, when I took the Trans-Siberian train with my mum. My many thanks to her for such an amazing trip (and for being such a patient videographer).

I’m currently planning my trip home from Asia to Moscow, and hopefully all the way to London in the summer. This video is awesome and has fuelled my excitement and impatience to get the August and onto the train!

Love this! My dad is a train aficionado, and I love to travel. So we’ve decided the Trans-Siberian train trip is perfect for us. I can’t for the day when we can finally take it!

Thank you so much! The Trans-Siberian was such an incredible trip, and certainly embodied the idea of savouring the journey, not the destination.

Lorra Fae, the song is “Apres Moi” by Regina Spektor!
