P.S. the Pamir Highway through Tajikistan absolutely ruined our poor car.
Just entered Kazakhstan! Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan were lovely. Now trying to make good time to Russia
Less than 100 miles from Afghanistan, but dw we're headed for Tajikistan...maybe...yes.
After 54 hrs border to border we are now leading a 20 car convoy across Mars... I mean Turkmenistan
We're at the port in Turkmenistan. Hopefully the border won't be too awful.
Arrived at the ferry port in Baku. Hopefully on a ferry to Turkmenistan tonight!
Update, Azerbaijan is literally hundreds of miles of absolute fucking nothingness.
We are officially in Asia! Sam continuing to feel deep national pride.
We are now in Turkey!! No issues at border crossing, good seeing as Sam was blacklisted. Now to McDonalds.
Currently queuing for the Turkish border crossing. Wish us luck!

This Summer, Sam Hunt, Tom Mumby, and Oscar Symington will be taking part in the Mongol Rally, a charity rally from London to Mongolia. The Rally involves a 10,000 mile drive across deserts, seas, warzones and France in a used, 1.2 litre Skoda Fabia. In other words, the car is not up to the task, and neither are we, but we like a challenge, and we're gonna make sure we get there. We'll try our best to keep you up to date using this blog so watch this space.
