NAPOLI – ITALY
20/7/23 Getting from Nice, in the south of France, to Sofia, Bulgaria’s capital, proved to be an interesting exercise in lacing together flights from two of Europe’s prominent ultra-low cost carriers, Ryanair and EasyJet.

KASHAN – IRAN
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.

TEHRAN – IRAN
2/7/2023 – 3/7/2023 Well, today was pretty uneventful! After getting back to Dave Hotel at close to midnight, we knew we only had about an hour and a half before we’d need to head to the airport. After a quick shower, our bags were packed, and we were half asleep on the beds ready to…
