The Mad Cross-Iran 5 Day Travel Dash

June 16th, 2009 by Boris Glumpler | Category: Travelogues 1
The Mad Cross-Iran 5 Day Travel Dash If, like me, you only get a 7 day transit visa for Iran and ıf, again like me, you find out that the money you budgeted with only lasts for 5 days, there's no need to dispair. It can be done while still seeing something from the country, mainly Yazd and Esfahan. After taking the overnight bus from Quetta to the border at Taftan have one last milky chai (from now on it's only sugar) and then proceed through customs so you,re one of the first in line as soon as the Iranian border opens....

A Beginner’s Guide to Travelling

February 2nd, 2007 by Boris Glumpler | Category: Articles 5
A Beginner’s Guide to Travelling I usually start the planning for a trip ages before I actually go away. I work as much as I can and save as much money up as I can, so the planning part is the only thing that keeps me sane. I work a bit over 300 hours in 2 jobs and this probably for over 6 months. But I know all this work will have an end eventually and my goal (going travelling) is keeping me motivated. So I have a lot of time on my hands in which I can think about what to take with me, where to go first, what to do, who to meet...
