RE: Cost and Planning - Backpacking through Russia!
hey there, great photos again, im thinking this trip is best done in Summer? also once in Russia you were using roubles true? ive always been a fan of not booking online as often you get ripped off ....in Thailand turning up was fine and saved a lot of money by doing that..anyways as you say booking this cross country trip is best done online and thats good to know....:))
hey thank you very much :) yes the best time to travel through Russia is in summer, in summer it is nice and warm, in the winter time it is not nice and very cold, no no I wrote not to order it online cause I am not sure if as you said I would get ripped, I bought it through a german agency , I wanted to be sure :) greetings Lena !!
ok whoops i see how so yep book through an agency by walking in off the street :))) or perhaps fly to Russia with an invitation then book there paying in Roubles, my sisters friends wife is Russian her name is "Irina" so she would have family in Russia :)) not sure where but ill look into it, im in New Zealand a long way away, anyways thanks for the info it all helps us plan the path we choose to walk :))) cheers :)))
