Russia, Vladivostok, 14 – 16 August 2016
Vladivostok – population 600,000, was a part of China until 1860. It is built on a series of hills so you are always walking either up or downhill. It was renovated in 2012 when it hosted the 24th APEC summit. … Continue reading

Russia, Moscow, 25 – 26 July 2016
Moscow, capital of Russia, population 20 million, not as tourist friendly as St.Petersburg. Most of the tourists I have seen so far in Russia have been Russians or Chinese. Tourists from the West are few, probably due to the rigmarole … Continue reading

Russia, St.Petersburg, 22 July 2016
