Its time, the call has come. I must return to work. So we turn north, as we will be storing the wagon in Armenia. The tears flow… our drive north back to Isfahan is lovely, with a stop to hike to a water fall, plus just overall being in the highland version of the mountains […]
Today we hammer north to Tehran, but first, I witness the most arched semi-trailer ever, I mean just look at it (Look below) its crazy, why? That’s way too much arch for such a short trailer. Any whooo… we basically head straight past Tehran, maybe next time I will finally visit it as we want […]
Ohhh this is a good one, we step back to the 2021 trip for the last time to fill in a small side track we did, We visit the Teymareh petroglyphsin the Golpayegan region. This area has rock art from over 7000 years ago with some ranging to over 30000 years old. It was definitely […]
In the Caspian Sea today, woooo. We wake up to a stunning sunrise as it lights up the mountains behind camp, although quite cold we make a coffee while packing up to speed to process. The wagon idles away, somewhat loudly, getting our bum heaters warm and giving the engine and trans a chance to […]
Back in the mountains we promptly get kicked out of our first camp spot. but luckily the guards lets us stay behind the locked gates for some peaceful sleeping.
Upon packing the wagon and loading Pina up, we meet the hosts again who want to see the car, and chat with us before we head on our way, this is sometimes tough to do as you want to chat, but it will turn in to a meal and 5 hours so you sometimes do […]
Well not really, but it sure looked close with the green rolling fields. Packing up in the morning the fog is heavy heavy, maybe 30M visibility, and in some places you can barely see past the hood. This is a nightmare to drive in as the drivers here cant be trusted to stay on their […]
Waking up before the sun rises is how we start the day, I quickly pack up the still wet tent from the dew and get the car ready to go, Asareh takes care of the coffee, which is in the travel mugs this morning for the drive out to save time. We start working our […]
Ohhh yes, that’s right, today we leave Iran. And head for that sweet sweet country of pork and beer. Our host at the Airbnb (not actually called that, Iran has there own) shows us around the property, it is very well decorated and the rooms are clean. We grab a coffee then head into town […]
What a day this was, stunning roads, friendly people, and some good food. We started today with an early rise so we could pack up for our 8am breakfast meet up. And as stated, he is waiting for us at the agreed time. This was one of those early pack ups that once again freezes […]
Well, when you wake up fresh and figure, you know what I feel like digging for 2 hours straight, the best thing to do is ignore the locals advice and go have a crack at the trail. And honestly, we had a very good start till we got to the 6km mark, snow, very hard […]
With our flight in 2 days it is time to strip the wagon down and clean everything. I mean even the tent comes off. We vacuum and wash the tent, the storage boxes, and even add the country flags we have missed. But of course this means 2 whole nights in town, now this is […]
