Russia

[MaxGreenman]

well i know this is probably not the place for it and i hope nobody minds this post. but my girlfriend and i are planning a drive from vladivostok russia to switzerland rest of europe and onto canada shipping our Patrol from melbourne. does anyone here have any experience in this sort of adventure? we are avoiding the countries that require a carnet du passage. just would love to talk to someone whos done it or planning to do something similar. we hope to leave in about 3 months. also need to find a place to store my massive rock specimen collection somewhere if anyone has any ideas? we just dont have space for it and i dont want to sell it or part with it just store it somewhere safe with someone honest who will appreciate value and look after it maybe in return for a few samples( i wanna return Nd go to a small town and be the crazy rock guy one day) any ideas would be fantastic and appreciated. and if this post is inappropriate then i apologise and dont mind if it gets deleted, just thought id ask.
thanks
Max

Sounds like a great trip Max. Where are you located?
Have you looked at a storage shed hire?

i havent reAlly looked into storage yet. but will need to start. its just the payments for a storage that i probably will miss now and then i will need to find an understanding accomodating storage place. as for location, that changes daily/weekly i started travelling Australia 2 years ago and havent found a secure base tonight im in bendemeer tomorrow up in the northern rivers for a week or so (my "friends" dont own their homes and arent very stable so storing stuff with them is a huge risk) and next week who knows where ill be. hopefully panning in a river somewhere. yes its going to be an amazing adventure im incredibly lucky to have a brave adventurous girlfriend whos keen to adventure as much as i am.
