Discovery Map® Travel Podcast
Mark Ciociola
The Discovery Map Travel Podcast takes you on a journey each week to a unique destination through the eyes of someone who is an expert on that area. Join us as we dissect each locale and get down to what each place is really about and exactly why we would want to experience it. You never know what you might find out, you might just be inspired to add a destination to your bucket list that you have never considered before.

This is part two of our conversation with Francis Tapon about Russia. We not only talk about visiting Russia, but we also talk about its culture, its politics, its relationship with the west and so much more. Francis is the author of The Hidden Europe - What Eastern Europeans Can Teach Us, Hike Your Own Hike and he is currently working on a book entitled The Unseen Africa due out in 2020.
