Welcome to Kazakhstan!


3min 29secs into our arrival into Kazakhstan our convoy had it's first breakdown. Now the real fun begins!

Had dinner at a restaurant which turned out to be a brothel... oops....

Tried camping in a field but we discovered that it was occupied by a renegade army with four tanks so we had to make a hasty retreat. Luckily it was too dark to see any other weaponary!

Two days of driving later, our car Matilda has now lost her muffler and her suspension is being compared to a kangaroo, much to the amusement of the Kazakhstanis.

Extreme ironing has officially begun....
