7 August 2011

Finally today I escaped from Syria through the border in Al Qamishli (Turkey). The plan was to get as soon as possible to Iran, because this travel is became to lazy and I wanted to accelerate it. But it happend that I caught a ride almost to the border between Turkey and Iraq. Fine, fate has decided to throw me to Iraq. Although this is just Kurdistan, there is plenty of policemen everywhere and it's very safe, crossing that border was quite and experience. Unfortunately I have a problem -no map, no kurdish knowledge, taxis everywhere (so probably difficult to hitchhike) also no working ATMs in the city (I also just learned that in Iran mastercard and visa do not work, and I don't have to much cash).
