OK, you twisted my arm. The following is a THREAD from the time I took the Trans-Mongolian railway. I was young and idealistic, stupid and proud, naive and trusting, and genuinely believed the answer to any question could be found in a good book theguardian.com/travel/2020/ja…
The Trans-Mongolian, the less famous counterpart to the Trans-Siberian, roughly follows the route of the tea trade from antiquity. It’s 2,215 km and would take you a shade under a week to travel uninterrupted from Moscow to the Beijing terminus
I however did not travel uninterrupted, and the whole thing took around six weeks (the luxury, I well appreciate, of having finished uni and there being no writing jobs keeping you home)
