Visa Shmeeza

Posted from Shirley, England, United Kingdom.

Just had a text this afternoon from those lovely people at the Visa Machine telling me our last visa has just arrived.

In the end we actually required 8 Visas in advance, plus 2 Letters of Invitation (all indicated below).  We will still need to get a visa on arrival at the Turkish border, but surprisingly we don’t require a visa for Georgia (but only because we will be in the country for less than 90 days).

So for those of you anoraks who would simply die without a list, our (proposed) route is as follows:-

• UK
• France
• Belgium
• Holland
• Germany
• Austria
• Slovenia
• Croatia
• Serbia
• Bulgaria
• Turkey
• Georgia
• Azerbaijan  (V)
• Turkmenistan  (LOI)
• Uzbekistan  (V)
• Tajikistan  (V)
• Kyrgyzstan  (V)
• Kazakhstan  (V)
• Russia  (V)(LOI)
• Mongolia  (V)

followed by the Trans-Mongolian Railway to Beijing in China (V) and then fly home to a hot bath!
