An unforgettable adventure!

After her book 'Around India in 80 Trains', author Monisha Rajesh has turned to world travel, which she shares with us in a new book called 'Around the World in 80 Trains'.

After quitting her job in 2015, she carefully plotted a route that would cover 45,000 miles - almost twice the circumference of the earth - coasting along the world's most remarkable railways; from the cloud-skimming heights of Tibet's Qinghai railway to silk-sheeted splendour on the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express.

Packing up her rucksack - and her fiancé, Jem - Monisha embarked on an unforgettable adventure that took her from London's St Pancras station to the vast expanses of Russia and Mongolia, North Korea, Canada, Kazakhstan, and beyond.
