Silver Path – freight train vacation 1 of 6
This is the film I made with one of my childhood friends (Alex Arnsdorf) in the summer of 2000. We left San Francisco, trying to see how far we could go in 11 days by hitching rides on freight trains. It’s an hour long in six clips and is available on DVD too (little-red-dots.com For youtube I’ve had to re-do the titles, so they’re a bit ugly.

Hostel World – Smooth hassle free accomodation to suit your budget
We have affiliated with Hostel World to provide direct access to their booking system from this site. One of my aims has always been to unearth, experience and then share some trips to lesser travelled destinations, using budget airlines and budget accommodation.
I have used Hostel world for accommodation for a Europe Trip and found that everything work smoothly. We travelled from Stansted -(plane)- Riga (train) Moscow (train) St Petersberg (coach) Tallin (ferry) Helsinki (ferry) Tallin (ferry) Stockholm (plane) Luton.
The online Hostel World Booking engine can be found on the righthand side of every page of Adventure Art Travel website and gives access to thousands of cheap hostels, hotels, guesthouses, appartments and other budget accomodation in Europe, Asia, America, Africa and World Wide.
After entering your destination and dates a list of available accomodation is shown, including all available rooms – single, double, dorm. A list of user feedback is also included along with a percentage rating to show how the accomodation comapres to others in the area.
For example Ben, Australia said this about the Old Town Backpackers in Tallin:
“The location of this hostel is brilliant with the Old Town right at your fingertips. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The actual room itself isn’t that crash hot. There are no walls between the kitchen, living room and bedroom which makes sleep rather difficult. Also, there is a glass panel in the door of the bathroom which provides open viewing access to everyone. Generally, though, it was a nice place to stay.”
