This trip wasn't well thought out. I used my air miles and ended up in the wrong part of Moscow for my cheap flight to Volgograd. So after landing in Domodedovo it took nearly 4 hours to get across Moscow to Sheremetyevo. Luckily I had booked hotels ... Read more >

I was sorry to leave Chechnya and wished I allocated more time for this part of the trip. My guide told me that to get to Dagestan we could drive on the motorway as it would be quicker but he did mention there may be a lot of traffic. The other option ... Read more >

Abkhazia is a disputed territory and a partially recognised state by the Russians and is also funded by them. This is obviously to show Georgia to stay away. The Georgians tried to occupy Abkhazia and after a bloody battle they failed. They insist they ... Read more >

This trip was a little awkward as I was planning it. The flights were awkward, the visas were awkward and I find Russia difficult to navigate around at most times but this time I am on my own and winging it as usual. I found a hotel centrally located ... Read more >
