About Soviet Trails

Welcome to my blog! I’m Hossy, the creator of this website, and I have a deep fascination with the history, culture, and travel opportunities in the 15 former Soviet Union countries. My passion for this region began with my own travels, where I discovered the unique charm, rich traditions, and hidden gems that each country has to offer. From the bustling streets of Moscow to the breathtaking landscapes of Kyrgyzstan, every place has a story worth sharing.

I started this blog to help fellow travelers explore these destinations with ease. Whether you’re looking for travel tips, advice on booking accommodations, must-visit attractions, or insights into local customs, you’ll find everything you need here. My goal is to make travel in the post-Soviet region more accessible by sharing firsthand experiences, useful guides, and practical information.

Whether you’re planning your first trip to a former Soviet country or you’re a seasoned traveler seeking new adventures, I hope this blog becomes a valuable resource for you.
