Doğubeyazıt, Turkey
Our stove broke making the morning tea... how are we going to cope?
Erzurum, Turkey
Interesting day trying to make up the lost time. Saw our first roadside corpse and had our first roadkill- 2 defenseless flying things...
Zonguldak, Turkey
So it turns out our full V5 documents arrived in england yesterday. Getting them couriered out so we've got 4 bonus days in turkey. ZING!
Istanbul, Turkey
Melting in the heat after the storm that followed us through Croatia. 41C according to one sign...
Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina
Driving through bosnia is a bit like driving through Wales. But wetter. And with more bullet holes.
Split, Croatia
Interesting night camped on the Cliff as lightning storm circled the area and threatened to wash out the road. Guess there must be worse yet to come. Good wash in the sea once the sun had appeared. Aiming for the bosnian border in the morning
Senj, Croatia
Looks like we're spending tonight somewhere on the croatian coast roads. Awesome beaches. Awesome mountain views. Cooking dinner on a cliff.
Bratislavský kraj, Slovakia
We're in Slovakia. We might have up to 2 weeks to kill waiting on paperwork. Suggestions on a postcard.
Prague, Czech Republic

hail from Chelmsford, in the uk. Looking for a fresh start and a bit of adventure in life, so logically taking a crappy car 10,000 miles across the globe is a sane thing to do.
