'Trans-Siberian Travels’

Poet Nikki Bennett and Kate Young travelled together on the Trans- Siberian Train, and here are some of Nikki’s poems and writings – a companion book to Kate’s journal. Together they explored Beijing, crossed Mongolia and Siberia and arrived in Moscow. A lifetime’s adventure, and in support of those who’d lost their lives - their
friends who’d died without ever having this amazing trip.
