Solo On The World's Longest Train Journey ????????
????????The Trans-Siberian train, who hasn't dreamt of taking it across this leviathan of a country? Well not me to be honest but somehow I decided to override my dread of endless train rides to show you what nobody has shown you before. The real Trans-Siberian. This isn't a package tour, nothing is booked in advance. It's just me on my own hopping from town to town on whichever train is leaving next, meeting locals, drinking vodka, avoiding snorers, exploring Russia. Join me!
I spent 4 Days Inside INDIA'S LONGEST TRAIN (78+ Hours) ????

Who are Kara and Nate?!
Watch our documentary here:
Originally from Nashville, Tennessee, we got married 2013 and were super “normal.” I was a teacher and Nate started a small printing business from the spare bedroom of our apartment.
We discovered the world of “travel hacking” while planning our honeymoon & became addicted ;)
So after 2 years of obsessively saving $35k and over 2 million miles and points, we sold our cars and apartment and left home January 10, 2016 for a “one year” trip around the world.
Our goal was to see as many places as possible before we ran out of money and went back home to “normal life.” We started this channel to share our experiences with friends and family, but quickly fell in love with living on the road and found a new passion for capturing our travels through video. So we did everything we could to keep going.
4 years later, we achieved our new goal of visiting 100 countries and all 7 continents. We had no plans to slow down, until 2020 forced us to ;) Which is when we bought a converted van to start exploring our own country for the first time!
After ~2 years of van life, we are back to full time international traveling! And now we are finding the best adventures the world has to offer :)
We are incredibly grateful to be able to continue doing something we love every day. ???????????? Thank you to everyone who has been a part of our journey!

The Journey Is Over ????????
This journey that started for me aged 17 in Anna’s Russian class has now come to an end. I have been officially banned from Russia for a period of three years. What great memories were created. From the villages of the Komi republic to the mountains of Dagestan, to the Siberian forests and Baikal, we have experienced so many adventures. I'll always remember the amazing Russian people I met with great fondness but it's time to to bring the curtain down.
Glory to the USSR!

80 hrs from London to Istanbul by Sleeper Train
Start speaking a new language in 3 weeks with Babbel : Get up to 65% OFF your subscription : HERE:
Today I’m taking taking the train from London all the way to Istanbul. Crossing 9 countries along the way on a variety of different sleeper trains, high speed trains and down right awful trains! Join me as I travel in the fastest possible time by using only the method of rail to get from one side of the continent of Europe to the other. Starting in London St Pancras, I’ll catch the Eurostar to Paris Gare Du Nord. Next up due to a delay from my previously booked train, I’ll grab a TGV over to Zurich, Switzerland. From there it’s the Austian Nightjet over to Vienna. Thanks to several lucky scrapes, I’m able to grab a 1st class train over to Budapest and catch up with my original itinerary to continue on to Arad, Romania. From Arad I’ll take one Romania’s most luxurious sleeper train over to Bucharest in order to catch my final train over to Turkey. This will be a couchette and it’s fare to say it’s a little rough around the edges.
As always let me know what you think, and if you’d do the same - to travel across Europe by sleeper train. It’s certainly possible with a little patience and a lack of sleep aha.

THE LONGEST WAY 1.0 - 350 days of hiking through China - TIMELAPSE
In 2008, I walked through China - 1 year, 4500km. I let my hair and my beard grow. This is the resulting video. UPDATE: ▶ I have decided to continue my walk home from China to Germany. I'm currently in Turkey, or about halfway through.I post daily videos on this channel, and I blog about it here:
ABOUT THIS VIDEO:
▶ I didn't finish my original goal of walking to Germany in 2008. Instead, I walked for a year and roughly 4500km, passed the Gobi desert, and then decided to stop walking.
▶ All of the distance from Beijing to Ürümqi was completed solely on foot, straight good old walking. There are instances where you can see me in the video sitting on a plane or riding a boat, but those are during breaks I had to take from walking, either to sort out bureaucracy issues or to take care of some personal things.
▶ I had been planning this trip for over a year before I even started, and getting as far as I got was an experience for which I am very grateful.
▶ Obtaining the necessary visa for a trip like this was not very easy, hence I had to go back to Beijing a few times to resolve some issues.
▶ This is not a strict 1 pic a day video, because I wanted to make it a bit more alive by adding some additional movement. Sometimes during the film you would follow me turn around, or something would happen in the background. I tried to capture these moments to make the video more interesting.
▶ If you liked the music I used in this video, get it here: The Kingpins - L'Aventurier Zhu Fengbo - Olive Tree
▶ The core of this project is in actually my blog where I have posted my extensive travel diary, starting from day 1 (Nov 9th 2007) and describing every single day until the end one year later.

The BAM: Russia's Unknown Trans-Siberian Train????????
???????? We have all heard of the Trans-Siberian, Russia's mega train journey that crosses Siberia as it skirts the Chinese border. But few have heard of the even more impressive B.A.M ( Baikal Amur Mainline ) which passes through virgin forest in the middle of Siberia. Built in the 1970s by young communists, the BAM is the greatest construction project of the 20th Century. And yet it is unknown in the West.
I decided to go and ride this unknown journey across northern Siberia and speak to the people who came to build it. Join me as we ride 'The Bam'!

The Only Way to Ride the Longest Train in the World
Why is it that any time you have to stop your car and wait for a train to cross, it’s always when you’re in a hurry? Hey, could be worse – you could have to wait for a train that really is over a mile long! And to make things even more “fun,” there’s no fixed timetable.
So, the longest train in the world, measuring in at 1.5 miles (2.5 km), runs on the Mauritania Railway. Up until a few years ago, there was just one option for passengers to travel on this train, and that was to literally sit on top of it. Doesn’t exactly sound like my perfect vacay, but locals and adventurous tourists alike don’t seem to mind sitting on rocks for hours on end!

Music by Epidemic Sound
SUMMARY:
- This railway is incredibly important for Mauritania since the iron ore industry makes up half of all the country’s exports.
- If the train is empty and moving northeast to the mines, it takes 16 hours. If it’s fully loaded and headed to the coast, it’s 20 hours, almost an entire day!
- You can choose to take a bunk in the only passenger car at the end of the train. It consists of cabins with 6 bunks in each. It only costs $3…but don’t expect much for such a small fee.
- People take bunks on a “first come first serve” basis, so don’t expect to be assigned a specific bed.
- It’s also a good idea to catch the train on its way from the coast to the mine because, otherwise, the cars will be full of iron ore and that stuff makes some pretty powerful dust that’s hard to wash off your face and clothes.
- The Sahara isn’t always hot like many people think. It is during the day, but it can be freezing at night. The wind is pretty strong too, so it’s a good idea to bring warm clothes and a thermos with you.
- The Ghan runs for 1,850 miles (3000 km) across the entire continent, from the southern city of Adelaide to Darwin in the North. The journey takes 3 days and 2 nights to complete.
- America’s longest trains are neither passenger nor cargo. They’re those that once belonged to the Ringling Bros Circus!
- It took the circus crew about 6 hours to unload the lengthy train and 12 hours to set everything up for the show.
- How about giving the legendary Trans-Siberian Railway a try? Starting in the country’s capital of Moscow, you’ll travel more than 5,750 miles (9,250 km) over the span of a week
- If it’s not the length of the train or the journey but the speed that matters to you the most, then get yourself a ticket on China’s Shanghai-Maglev Train. It’s currently the fastest commercially operated train in the world.

Singapore to Denmark overland solo | 26,000km, 18 countries, 3 months | All roads lead to Noma
From April 2016 I travelled from Singapore to Denmark overland solo over 26,000km, 18 countries and 3 months to visit the four-time world's best restaurant, Noma. You can read more about my trip at A year ago today I arrived at the restaurant.
It had always been a dream of mine to visit Noma, so when a friend jokingly suggested we try and get a table, I said yeah, and I'll get there by land (I was studying in Singapore) ...and then I realised I wasn't joking. I decided to go all-out and make a website for it.
How much did it all cost? About $4,500 AUD ($3,500 USD) for 3 months on the road. This includes accommodation, travel, visas, gear and food. Keep in mind I was travelling very cheaply: hostels, hitch-hiking, couchsurfing, street food - I slept outside a few times, so that was free.
Was the meal worth it? Yes!! Without a doubt the best meal I've ever had - check out my blog post about it for pictures (
Thanks to everyone I met along the way - whether I met you in a hostel or you let me sleep on your couch or you gave me a ride, the most memorable parts of this trip were the people I met.
I do not own any of the soundtrack, property and rights for audio go to Depeche Mode and Iggy Pop.
