After a 314km ride from Yazd, I am now already safe in Esfahan and will be staying here for few days before heading to Tehran. Reached here about an hour ago. Have to stop here as it is one of the oldest cities in Iran not to be missed. And of course for other reasons too. Yes, you guessed it right; my bottom hurts!

In case you didn’t notice, there’s a MAP page on this blog. You can check my current location from there. Sometimes the map is updated faster than the blog because the map coordinator, Bro Z, is quite a fast guy! Thanks Bro!

After 18hrs on the road from Nok Kundi, Pakistan, i am now safe in Bam, Iran. Arrived almost midnight after 560km of a hell ride. Tired like crazy. Will be taking a break here before heading to Yazd on Saturday morning.

Had bad…worst time of my life for the past week. Riding under so-called security was more unsafe and miserable–no food, no water, no shelter, no toilet, nothing. The security measures was actually putting my life more at risk.

My passport was confiscated under a security measure by both Pakistan and Iran authority. And guess what? They lost it within few hours and no one knew where and who held my passport. Had a big fight with them and my passport was returned to me few hours before reaching Bam.

I should be in Tehran by Thursday next week and will stay there for few days.

Khoda Hafez.
