I've just crossed the longest tunnel that goes under the river Amur, its length is of 2km and is between Irkutsk and Vladivostok. It was built in 1937 to 1942. I have finally arrived at Vladivostok, the last stop of my wonderful trip. I think I will miss Russia a lot: its friendly and warm people, its culture and freezing tempratures as well as it's evergreen landscape and vegetation. Siberia's nature is so untouched and beauiful. I will also miss seeing so many wild animals (a rare thing in Europe). I know though, that I will be happy eating my own familiar food as i am getting sick of fish and patatoes. It was such a great experience, meeting so many different people and talking with them. There was always something to do, look out the window and contemplate the ever-changing landscape, take a nap with the and regular sound of the wheels on the railway or read a book you had always wanted to read and had put aside because you lacked the time to read it. I have realised that sharing was very important upon the Great Siberian Way; sharing your food, your maps, your books, interesting information and I guess that was what the trip was all about. Russia is a beautiful country that I knew little of. The landcsapes of so diverse, going from a coniferous forests, to an artic deserts to semi-desertic steppes. The land use is also very different from the European's. I encourage everyone to do this adventure trip because Russia is full of cultural and historical treasures. I am heading by taxi to the Vladivostok Internationnal Airport and boarding in an hour (4p.m) going back to France (where is it 9a.m)
Goodbye
До свидания
