Part 22: Against the Grit on Georgia’s Streets On our way to Georgia, another coastal road beckons with its unique views. However, the weather has struck a double blow: it is both rainy and oppressively hot. We make good progress from Trabzon in Turkey to the […]

Part 19: Going the Distance on the Aegean Sea Well, we admit it: the last few days in Athens and Crete were rather… decelerated by our standards. So it’s clear that we’re going to cover a lot of ground now. And what a route it was! […]

Part 13: An Adventurous Trip to Shokdra “Okay Google, show me the way to the next big city!” When we shoot a question like this into a search engine, we expect a clear, straightforward route to come back: few turns, fast roads, long straight lines. Perfect […]
