Hello from on the road!
Hi everyone. We're currently about midway in our overland trip from The Netherlands back to our homecountry of Australia. We are now in Iran, about to cross Pakistan to India.
We are having an absolute ball and the trip has gone fantastic so far, except for being robbed in Western Australia, only 4 weeks into our trip.
We aim to post more in the future once we have something to write about to help others. Meanwhile, we keep a blog with photos at This Life Outside - Global Adventures of all things outdoors and also on Facebook at www.facebook.com/thislifeoutside2015.
Regards,
Emiel and Claire

Merhaba,
You have a great blog showing almost all the colors and tastes of my country and thanks for your words, Türkiye seviyorum...Your blog also reminded me some dishes I ve almost forgotten.. sure will be there to try all deserts and drinks this week end...
As you are very careful in details about your travel, started following your blog and also expecting to read all for İran and Pakistan to update my mind, information,useful notes and compare with my travels in 1985-1996- 2005.
Your experiences will also lighten the following travellers who are after current information in HUBB.
Thanks a lot for such a great blog and all the best from İstanbul.

New to Horizons Unlimited?
New to motorcycle travelling? New to the HU site? Confused? Too many options? It's really very simple - just 4 easy steps!
Horizons Unlimited was founded in 1997 by Grant and Susan Johnson following their journey around the world on a BMW R80G/S.
Read more about Grant & Susan's story
Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
