Vladivostok - Post Report Question and Answers
What have been the highlights of your time in this country? Best trips or experiences?
I met some amazing people while here and truly enjoyed my assignment due to this. As far as experiences, I missed Kamchatka, but colleagues and friends who went their described it as "amazing." I did visit Lena's Pillars in northern Yakutia and it was breathtaking. Sakhalin Island, where most expat oil companies were located, was a fairly nice place to visit. Within Vladivostok, Russky Island had many opportunities for hiking, enjoying beaches, kayaking/rowing, etc. While in Russia, I visited Kazan which was a fun break and very different from both Moscow and Vladivostok. Worth a trip. - Jun 2017
