Bolschoi Spasibo, A lot of Thanks that we can be on the road again

First of all we have to say thank you to Nadja & Slawa, Anja, Yulia, Aljona & Sascha, Natalia, Sergei San, Bela, Elisabeth, Lena, Dima, the Guys on the market which borrowed tools to me, my parents and to all the people who were supporting us and feeling with us. Without all of them we would not be on the road again.

 

After we got the car back I had to remake almost everything which I had constructed in March and April in Tokyo. The car hijackers took out everything, really everything and damaged the roof and all the roof carriers. Around 50 % of our stuff they just throw back in the car including some open beer. Well that means the last week before we started from Irkutsk I had to rebuild a lot and therefore there was no time for writing Blog. Because of some Visa problems it is impossible for us to go to Mongolia. That means we had to change our plan. Now we are on the way to Omsk, which is around 3000 km in the west of Irkutsk. In Omsk we will apply for the Kazakhstan Visa and then go to the South directly to Kazakhstan.

 

The total cost of the unfortunate happening in Irkutsk is around 6500 EUR. That is a quite big amount which is now missing in our travel pocket. Therefore I had the funny idea to sell pictures that we will make at every 50 km on our way from Irkutsk to Germany. We try not to cheat and we really make a picture exactly at every 50 km of our route. This picture or a collage of pictures at this point including the GPS coordinates we will send to you by e-mail. Each picture is unique and will be sold only once. It is like Lotto, maybe you will get an interesting one or there is nothing. But do not worry we try our best. Furthermore you will get an article with the full story about the stolen car, how we got it back and about our restart. I do not want to write about the stolen car and how we got it back on the Blog. I do not want to bring the people who helped us into any risk. By sending it with the 50 km pictures I have some control about who is reading the story and I can minimize the risk.
