Dear traveler, welcome to Yazd. One of the oldest settlements on Earth, rising from the desert plains will easily cast a spell on you. Yazd is a magic city. Get ready for some amazing rooftop hopping. Try the best kebab ever and learn how to stay fit the Iranian way!
Sleeping in hotels is totally overrated. I shall challenge you to go back in time and spend a night in a Persian cave in the middle of nowhere. Yabadabadoo! Doesn’t it sound like the ultimate adventure? Go Iran, go Meymand. You won’t regret.
Iran has got nothing more than some mosques and tons of sand? Oh boy, let me prove you wrong. Challenge accepted. Believe or not. Persian sand is not always what it seems. Don’t open this post if you have high blood pressure. You are going to have a heart attack!
Our first days in Iran were far from being a fairy tale and even the beautiful Pink Mosque didn’t help. But as The Wildest Tales lore says – the best way to learn that the world is full of decent people is to get yourself into trouble and let the local folks help you.
Are you in for a treat? You’ll have a lot of them in Iran if you go wild and plunder the sweetest sweet shop with me. Let a Persian family adopt you. Get wasted on tea and hop on my flying carpet. Measuring a country has never been so exciting. Hello Iran!
My last post from Burma will take you to Mandalay – the second biggest city in Myanmar. We have one space left on our moped today so hop on quickly! Come and see all the beautiful temples and vibrant villages with us. Miss Burma, you will be missed!
Inle Lake was a mixture of a lot of sweet memories and some slightly bitter ones. Check out all the things we liked, learn what to skip to get the most out of it. Cycle, walk, float. Let the lake amaze you. Is Inle on your “must-see” list? I would go back there anytime!
The (in)famous fishermen of Inle Lake are here! Are they another overrated tourist trap or perhaps a vanishing, beautiful tradition? The early bird caught the worm and it’s a picture that is worth a thousand words. Oh Myanmar! You keep on amazing us!
If not for the views… do it for your bum! Three days across rural Burma won’t be the most exciting adventure ever but it’s a great chance to gain an insight into a real life of local villagers and a nice break from big cities. Check out my experience in this post.
Hundreds of pagodas on the horizon. A dense forest of stupas. I know few more beautiful landscapes than the one in Bagan. This place is a real creme de la creme of not only Myanmar but the whole Asia. Put your Indiana Jones hat on and set off on an adventure.
