Oh, WOW! I do feel like I have stumbled upon something so magnificent, I can hardly contain myself. Thanks to Google Maps and Russian Railways, we can become armchair passengers on the Trans-Siberian from our very own дом!! Jump on the train in Moscow and ride all the way to Vladivostok. Quick, go grab some Квас and come back and press the play button. To make it even more fantastic, you can select a soundtrack to your liking. If you are like me, the “Rumble of the tracks” sends your soul soaring and provides you with a happiness that has no equal. No? It’s not for you or it puts you to sleep? Well, practice your Russian and listen to War and Peace while you are riding the rails.
Боже мой!
