I did London to Sydney by train in 2012 (except the hop from Singapore to Darwin) & it was absolutely fantastic (book on Kindle, excuse the plug). Wish I hadnt omitted the Lhasa option. I found that all my blogs were blocked throughout China & down into Hanoi. I had to email them home for someone else to post. Hope you're going to be tweeting?

Tom – this journey is one way and will take me about four weeks, but it would only take 2-3 weeks if I were going straight to Hong Kong, rather than via Lhasa first.

Your trip sounds seriously good Will. I shall look up your book, it will help inspire me with my own writing and book from the first three trips.

Your trip to come and past trips sound absolutely wonderful. I am green with envy! Seriously, I have the TBE on my bucket list and intend to do Porto to HCMC. The Silk Route would be wonderful by train/bus but as you say stability often gets in the way. I had to postpone Istanbul to Syria twice before finally making it in 2009. I think I need a career change like you! If you are interested in some train travel orientated reading for your trip, you could buy or download 'On the beaten track – travels in Eastern Europe' from Amazon. It's written by me and I think you would like it! Have a great trip and I look forward to reading about it. Will/Wilbur.

Good luck!
