Hi, I'm Alastair. I’ve been a travel journalist/editor since 1989, originally in local, then national radio before moving online just before the millennium.
Mechtraveller has been running for a few years now. It reflects my own interests in the mechanical, technical, historical, engineering and military world.
There's quite a body of reviews, posts and news. And loads more to come!
Hi Alastair, thanks for sharing your blog with the Travel Massive community!
I'm a sucker for aviation and engineering museums. In recent years I visited aviation museums in Budapest, and in Moscow (who knew how many aeroplanes Tupolev invented!)
He sure did! There's a whole bunch of museums around Moscow I need to visit. mechtraveller.com/sites-of-interest/sites-of-interest-in-russia-and-the-caucasus/
Heaven knows when that'll happen!
Hi Alastair,
Give me a shout when you decide to head our way (Russia) :-)
Would be an honour to share all the motorized history with that is on display in dozens of museums here.
Tks Pavel. Will do! :)
