We both, Anna and me are happy and proud to announce, that the first part of our travel documentary “Anna, Asia and Me. 250 Days on the Road” is ready! We already screened the film in a cinema in Berlin and in September 2019 we both are going on a film tour in Germany and will screen our travel documentary in many German cities! Me, Svetlana Bogdanova, and my 8-year-old daughter Anna gave up our comfortable life in Berlin, sold the most of our household and started our long trip across the South-East Asia. We took only the really necessary things – we travel with hand luggage only. And with one-way tickets to stay flexible and free! We were travelling for 250 days, just two of us. We left the beaten tracks and immersed ourselves into the local life, discovered the culture and everyday life of each country and made new friends. In the first part of our travel documentary film we explore Malaysia and move through Indonesian islands. In the second and in the third part ...

It was my dream – to travel around the World and to produce travel documentaries!

I studied Directing of Media Programs in Russia, visited film making classes and worked in a public TV channel in Germany… and was waiting until my daughter Anna grows up little bit and we both will be able to start our first epic mother-daughter trip ! At the age of 8 Anna asked me, when we finally going to start our trip. She was ready to hit the road. I gave up our apartment in Berlin, sold the car and some other household stuff and packed two backpacks. From this moment I started to live my dream – the dream to be free from the social pressure, to go where I want to go, to discover the world the way I want, to share our experiences with others, to capture our travels and to produce travel documentary films.

Start your own Women’s Adventure . Women can easily travel  alone in the most parts of our beautiful planet. Don’t believe the negative media hype!

The Best Way to trip around the world

Image
Our Travel around the World started with a one-way flight from Moscow to Hong Kong. No other tickets, no bookings or commitments. In order to preserve our precious freedom and be able to stay flexible, I do not book tickets or activities in advance. I am following my vision and I have my priorities, but I do not over plan, I stay flexible and open to change my plans and let the Universe determine the rest. Our travel route developed on the way, day by day. After spending some time in Hong Kong we decided what country will be the next. And so on... moving slowly forward, step by step, leaving much of our old life behind, we made our trip around the world.  In 290 days we traveled in 14 countries (China, Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Australia, New Zealand, Mexico, Cuba ... ) and returned to the place where we started - my hometown Bely in the "Russian outback". I chose this place as the official starting point of our around the world trip.  ...
