I took again the road after one day stopped in Varna (Bulgaria) because of a storm. The sky was clear but soon after leaving the city, I found out what happened the previous day. About 30 centimetres were bordering the road all the way to Turkey, lots of trees were collapsed because of both the wind and the snow. Fortunately the temperature was quite warm (10 degrees) and the snow was melting fast.

The next day, i rode to Cappadocia, to see these so particular landscapes.

Last picture from capadoccia : the love valley, famous for the shape of its rocks.

After some difficulties, i ve finally entered syria.

I first tried on 3rd, and after one hours questioning, i ve been turned back to turkey, officialy because my visa is not valid.

The next day, i tried to gather infomations : has anybody entered recently syria from turkey, are the chances to enter different depending on the nationality, border post, visa...?
