Hello and

Everybody!
I think about a trip starting in Vienna, Austria, heading to Iran via Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, and Turkey. The plan is to continue to Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan and then back home via Russia, maybe Latvia, Lithuania, Poland and Check Republic!
Up to know I read a lot, especially about Iran, but I don't have an exact plan, route or timing yet. My major problem is, none of my friends is willing to join me and I don't want to do this alone.
The approximate key points of the trip up to know - nearly everything might be changed
- Start around April 2009
- estimated 3 up to 6 Months
- Low to Medium Budget
- With camping equipment
- Bike probably a used BMW F650 GS Dakar (not bought yet)
- Cultural activities should not come too short.
About me:
I am 31 years old, male, just before marriage, and in the end of my PhD studies. Beside going out for a good dinner and sipping cocktails, my major hobbies are traveling and riding the bike. My language skills are limited to German and English.
So if there is anyone out there who is also interested in a trip like this (or part of this) is welcome to contact me! As already mentioned: No fixed planes are made yet, so I am more or less flexible.
Best,
Oliver.
