Seriously, who wouldn’t pick the following location to start an epic half-way around the world over-land journey?
As it turned out not us; for the first days Pascal was travelling with me and we started from the gasstation 300m further. Hitch-hiking from gasstations allows for selection who to approach, time for the people to find out who you are and a discussion on where exactly to get out.
Although traffic at the gasstation was pretty slim, we got underway in under 30 minutes.
