Subject: Research Trip For Russian Waterway Guide
JOIN OUR RESEARCH TEAM FOR THE RUSSIAN BY WATERWAY TRAVEL GUIDE BOOK
>From 18 June to mid August, a small research team will be travelling around
Russia's and Ukraine's waterways collecting information for a new guidebook
called Russia & Ukraine by Waterway.
The book will cover
* Dnieper River: Kiev, Kanev, Kremenchug, Zaporozhye, Kherson,
Odessa, Sevastopol
* Volga River: Moscow to Astrakhan: Moscow, Uglich, Yaroslavl,
Kostroma, Nizhni Novgorod, Kazan, Samara, Saratov, Volgograd, Astrakhan
* Volgo-Don Canal: Volgograd to Rostov-na-Donu: Volgograd,
Kalach-na-Dony , Volgodonsk, Aksai, Rostov-na-Dony
* Volga River: Moscow to Tver: Moscow, Tver
* Lake Baikal: Irkutsk, Port Baikal, Severobaikalsk
* River trips to local sights and beaches: around major cities
including Moscow, St Petersburg, Minsk, Kiev, Novosibirsk, Irkutsk,
Krasnoyarsk, Khabarovsk, Astrakhan
* Various Rivers & Canals: Moscow to St Petersburg: Moscow, Uglich,
Kizhi Island, Petrozavodsk, Valaam Island, St Petersburg
The team's leader will be Tatyana Pozar-Burgar of Melbourne, Australia, who
worked on both the Siberian BAM Railway Guide and Russia by Rail Guide.
Joining the research group is an ideal way for non-Russian speakers to see
the country for local prices. If you would like to join, it costs just $80
for visa invitation, coordination and a copy of the book when it comes out.
Of course you pay the costs of getting to Russia and all your local costs,
just like us. Our last research trips cost each person about $20 a day. It
would be expected that you do some research on the places that you will be
visiting.
If you want more information, email me and I will send you more details.
