Companion(s) for Orient Express and beyond

[scarling]

I'm a 22 year old British guy planning on traveling from Russia to Japan via China and South Korea starting in September. The plan is to spend about a month in Russia, get the transsiberian to Vladivostok and from there a train to China, spend four or five months in China (especially down south during the winter) then go to South Korea for a month in the early spring and another month or two in Japan for the spring blossoms.

So, anyone want to join me for some or all of that? I'm going on my own at the moment, so it would be nice to have company for at least some of the way. If so, then send me an email: joelchatelain[at]yahoo.com (replace the [at] with @, I just write it like that to stop spambots picking it up and filling my inbox with junk).

Welcome to the boards, sounds like you have a fun time planned!

While I'm pretty sure I won't be able to join you, I will be in China from Sept - mid-Dec doing a semester abroad. So if you happen to be in the area and want to have a drink and eats I'd be game. I'll mainly be in Nanjing, but will be taking several jaunts to different areas like Beijing, Inner Mongolia, Yunnan and the Tibetan plateau so our paths may cross!
