About Me

NOMADIC LIFESTYLE, EARTH, United States
After getting my first passport in 2006 and traveling to climb Kilimanjaro in Tanzania my life changed. I began the process of getting rid of all my possessions and traveling the world. Traveling to over 125 countries and all 7 continents, hostels have been my home. This "new life" has taught me what is important and it was NOT accumulating money or possessions. Traveling is the best education. I hope my blog will encourage others to travel. My World Tattoo was a way for me to express my PASSION FOR TRAVEL.

Just completed the 2nd half of Trans Siberian Railroad from Irkutsk to Moscow. Took metro to Kremlin Lights Hostel and now 3 nights to recover. My 1st visit was to KREMLIN which is next to hostel and then in afternoon I visited Red Square.



























RUSSIA, Irkutsk

August 21, 2018

Split my Trans-Siberian trip up by stopping in Irkutsk, starting point for Lake Baikal visit. Actually decided time constraints would not allow me to visit the touristy island on Lake Baikal, so saw many beautiful sights in Irkutsk.  Nice to have shower after 3 nights on train which has no showers. Back on train at 3:40 a.m on 24th for final 3 nights to Moscow.

Flew from Beijing to Vladivostok, Russia at 3 am and arriving about 7am. Navigated security and passport control and caught local bus to main train station, only 5 minute walk to my hostel. Nice city on east coast of Russia and starting point for TRANS-SIBERIAN RAILROAD journey beginning August 18th. I have a 2nd class sleeper berth for the 6 night journey.
