Still in Iran ;-)

Hey guys....

Just updated the blog ... added the Iran page and filled it up with pics from my two previous stops (Yazd and Shiraz/Persepolis).
Check out !!!

I m now in Isfahan but I'm taking a bus tonight to go up north in the mountains (Next to the Caspian Sea)....Feel like I need some fresh air and need to head up to "off beaten tracks" places for a bit. I had enough with cities and I was told by many travelers that the north west of Iran really worth the trip....
I let you guys know as soon as I m back and find an internet place to update the blog ....

Cheers.

In Iran !!!!

Yes, I did it, I'm finally in Iran...the country I was looking forward the most. But also the one I really wasn t sure to go with the post elections riots in the streets all over the country.

But actually, everything is pretty OK here, even if the fight is not over for a lot of citizens, for the city I was (Yadz) and I am now (Shiraz), everything is fine...and even locals are quite open to talk about it and to tell us their political point of view (I met both sides supporters who were heavily defending their leader).

I ll update my blog with Iran a little bit later...but for now you can check out the Turmenistan one (quite short I know,but I ve only spent two days there).

Tchuss tchuss !!!

News

Back in Tashkent and waiting for my Turkmen visa....
pffff, quite looking forward to leave this countyr, not that I don t like it but more because I d like to see the next one...and the one after.
Might shorten my trip a little bit as I received sopme news from my scholl that they are waiting for me on August 31st in Singapore (I was more supposed to spend a week or two in Paris before leaving...anyway).

I m not sure I ll have enough time to go back to France over land....still don t know, otherwise I (hopefully) I said on a prievious post, I ll end up my silk road trip in Istanbul.

Let s wait and see....

Cheers ;-)

ps: And thanks for all the comments I received from you guys about this blog....

Ahhhh.. in Bukhara now (Uzbekistan....)

Quite a little cute city (which has apparently 240 000 inhabitants but I hardly believe in that).
Hot... very hot, but the place is quite enjoyable, the old city is just beautiful, much more charming than the worldwide famous Samarcande.

The next step is to go up north to the Dead Aral sea....

Ok, guys, check out the new Uzbekistan page I updated yesterday and today.

Cheeers...
