In January 2023, right before starting my junior year of college, I went on a solo trip to Russia for a month. I debated whether to go since the war was in full swing, but looking back, I'm glad I did. Sharing some photos from that time. Body: Sony A7m4, Lens: Sony 24-105 F4. The route was roughly: Donghae Port - Vladivostok - Irkutsk - Lake Baikal.
Departure from Donghae Port
Vladivostok → Irkutsk
It was -35°C back then, but I was wandering around in just a fleece lmao
Lake Baikal. I loaded all my gear on a sled and spent 2 weeks camping on the lake. It was an amazing experience.
Took a few panoramas as well.
I have nothing but good memories from my trip to Russia, so I'm thinking of going back someday. I actually have drone photos/vids and some other clips, but I still haven't sorted through them all, so I'm just uploading a few good shots for now haha.
