Travelling to Nepal
What a shame Eva and Thomas have decided not to travel overland to India. Mick and myself are at the moment at Alexandroupoli before we cross the border into Turkey tomorrow.
Travelling four years ago through Russia into Mongolia and into the Stan countries, at each border crossing the country we were going into couldn't believe we had crossed the previous country in once piece. They warned us we would be murdered raped or robbed - beaten up and thrown to the dogs. We found the people of each country so unbelievably special. The less they had the more they wanted to share. Perhaps my hub user name 'Old Adventurer' is the key? Both Mick and myself are in our 60's, we are no threat to anybody, they probably can't believe their eyes that two old farts are riding motorcycles halfway across the world.
If the Iranians don't let us into the country it won't be for the want of trying. ditto to Pakistan.
Enjoy your trip Eva and Thomas where ever you get to, we would have loved to have met you in Nepal
