The news about the camshaft totally shocked us. And it wasn’t only painful because of that 1000 liras, rather the fact that we’re gonna be stuck here for 5-6 days. Trabzon has almost 780 000 inhabitants, but besides some Turkish buffets, there is only a handful of restaurants there, and 4 bars all together. So there is really not that many things in Trabzon, especially no life. It could still be okay, but the weather is kinda crap and the ...
After a short pit stop in Konya, we pulled the throttle real hard to get to Cappadocia before the sunset.
Turkey definitely has a ton to offer, but Cappadocia is for sure the only place everyone has seen at least one photo of, that made them think “I shall go there once” - and we felt exactly the same way. I have seen a ton of pictures of it before, skimmed through some articles about it like I usually do, and I was sure this was ...
We woke up in Istanbul and we did exactly what the usual tourist does in Istanbul. We went to discover the city, walked all day, trying to switch to the pedestrian mindset from the motorway madness.

This is gonna be one of those typical smartypants, boring travel posts, you’d better not read it!
When you start planning such a trip, you’re trying to focus only on the good parts, the interesting ones. In the meantime, somewhere in the very back of your mind you know ...
" A dream does not become reality through magic; it takes sweat, determination and hard work." – Colin Powell
A similar quote was written on wall of the workshop room back in elementary school where the teacher, Benő, who was a gigantic piece of shit, was always beating our heads with his big signet ring. May he not rest in peace.
A trustworthy motorbike mechanic is just as important of a relationship as a trustworthy dentist. I ...
Deciding to go around the world with a motorcycle was not difficult at all, but to come to a decision about the type, well, it took longer than giving birth to six twins in the living room.
I suffered like Mick Jagger and Keith Richards after a night in LA, in the early 80’s.
All sorts of people, men and women, alone or in a group, with dogs or cats, have done this or something very similar. It's not a question “doability”, but ...
