About me

Location	Moscow, Russia
Introduction	Although I have been visiting the USSR & Russia since 1978, I only moved full-time to Moscow in 1999. I've been here nearly a decade now, and in a city that's constantly reinventing itself, the city has changed enormously in that short time. But then - statistically - it's the fastest-changing city in Europe! My interests are travel, classical music, opera, theatre, cycling, computers and internet, Russian history and culture. I also like to read - fiction, documentary, reportage, plays, novels, and more. I'm Director of THE RUSSIA EXPERIENCE, a Travel Company specialising in Russia, Mongolia and China. I also write travel journalism for a wide number of publications - you can see my stuff in Wanderlust, The Independent, Passport, and in guidebooks such as the Trans-Siberian Handbook and in Rough Guides.
