New Blog!!!



Following the success of 2007's Asia blog - at which literally tens of you looked - I have a brand spanking new blog, so new it comes with its warning labels still attached and a bag of silica gel.

I shall be traveling with Claire, from London to Istanbul. We shall shirk the plane and inter rail our way Eastwards, avoiding military coups and missile shields in the process.

Our choice of transport is in no way related to fact that planes reduce me to a quivering, thumb-sucking wreck, blocking the emergency exits in a gently-rocking foetal pose.

There shall be commentary, interviews and photos aplenty as we get to grips with some of Europe's hidden treasures, including Romania, Bulgaria, Serbia and, er Belgium.

Sounds fantastic mate. When are you off? How long you expecting it to take? Seeing as you are by now a seasoned train traveler I guess you know about http://www.seat61.com/ but if not then look it up....you can indulge your inner trainspotter (grizzer, gricer or foamer according to that fount of knowledge wikipedia) to your hearts content.

Hopefully I will manage to catch you before you leave but if not then look forward to hearing all about it when you are back.
