SEOUL – SOUTH KOREA
15/11/23 – 17/11/23 No qualms about the AirAsia flight, everything ran smoothly, and I’d pre-ordered a nasi lemak for $7 which I thought, compared to airport pricing, was pretty good. We landed on time at klia2, which I found to be much better stocked and maintained than the main terminal at KLIA. Given I had…

ISTANBUL – TÜRKIYE (#2)
22/7/23 – 23/7/23 Thanks to my British passport, I can get visa-free entry into Turkey, saving me the $90 e-Visa fee I had to pay last time when I only had my Australian one!

9/7/2023 – 10/7/2023 Our final full day in Iran began with breakfast at the Seterah Hotel before jumping into the car and heading towards Tehran. Before we would get there though, we had a stop to make, in the town of Kashan. Kashan is probably most famous nowadays for the Fin Garden, a traditional Persian…

ISFAHAN – IRAN
7/7/2023 – 9/7/2023 Despite intending to get up early in order to get ourselves sorted, we both managed to sleep in! I dragged myself out of bed and into the shower at about 8am, feeling the effects of the heavy travel schedule. Dad took a little bit longer, his neck still playing up, but eventually…
