Packing!

I brought one small shoulder bag and one large rucksack. 
In the small shoulder bag I decided to bring:
  • train tickets, passport, money (1 euro is approximately 40 Russian rubles)
  • letters and envelopes (I will buy lots of postcards along the way)   
  • many books to read during these next weeks  
  • a few photographs of family and friends
  •  a notebook and pencil case and sketch-book,crafts for the train
  • first aid kit and basics
  • Russian guidebooks which include maps of Yekaterinburg and Krasnoyarsk (which are the two cities I will stop at)
  •  English to Russian dictionary( which includes some basic phrases) 
  •  my laptop and charger 
  •  camera and charger my ipod and headphones 
In the rucksack I decided to bring:
  • Very,very warm clothes against the extreme cold temperatures such as: two large fur hats, three pairs of leather padded waterproof gloves with fur, two cotton scarves, a large winter coat, snow pants,warm snow boots with treads and fur and wool inlayed in the boots, very warm jackets and sweaters and corduroy pants.
  • thick blankets for the train
