On the move

I do love my passport cover, which is from St Petersburg. Given how much more use a passport gets in Russia than in the UK, not having a cover for your passport makes it a pretty tatty document very quickly. I find it really strange the way my passport sits for months on end in a drawer here, and it seems very right to have it out again, as I get organised for an exciting trip to Bangladesh and Thailand. Bangladesh has got very fancy new visas, last time it was a stamp in my passport, this time the sticker even has my photo on it, not that that improves it!
