A visit to the Anitkabir, the eternal resting place of the father of modern day Turkey – Ataturk. A fascinating insight into modern Turkish culture, value system, and national identity. An absolute must if you are in the area.
We climbed all the way to the top of Ratnagiri hill, which hosts the small Savitri temple, to bring y’all the views of tiny (!) Pushkar.
Jenia and our friend Nastya learn how to drive a scooter under Sergey’s patient guidance. Don’t worry we wear helmets on the road! it was just particularly hot that day and slow driving makes helmets oh so uncomfortable and itchy.
Hanging out on a mountain — this time no hike, very easy and pleasant — hitched a ride to the chairlift (~8 km from Mestia) and then onwards and upwards by the mechanical wonder. The image is of mountain Ushba, which refused to part with the clouds on that day.
Hands down our favorite day in Myanmar — there is something very magical about Hpa-an countryside. Or maybe it was all in the timing — who knows. But we wished we could’ve spent longer.
Day 1 of our first unsupervised motorcycle trip. Her name is Indi, and we purchased her in Vang Vieng. She carried us, plus all of our luggage up and down some steep hills between Vang Vieng and Luang Prabang. She did well 🙂
