Taken into a small room and interrogated by a (rather friendly, in a kind of disappointing way) Russian border guard

04/11/2007: Jil, Armenia

The Armenian - Azeri border is very tense, as they are still technically at war. You probably shouldn't hike up to it and then fly a kite. Ahem.

28/10/2007: Fīrūzābād, Iran

Yazd; Famous for beautiful mud-brick buildings, wind towers, and (for me at least) date milkshakes. Oh yeah.

20/09/2007: Irgani, Georgia

The world's worst toilet. Right here, on the Georgian side of the rail border with Armenia.
