Day 141: Shirvan to Kurdamir
/Slogging across the steppes
Wide open plains and headwinds are becoming the them of Azerbaijan. We’ve left the oil fields behind and we’re in grain growing country now but, if anything, the landscape is even flatter.
Plugging a headwind for hours
The people are lovely though. Encouragement from passing cars, waves from people by the road and a nice guy who invited us into his empty shop to sit at his table and chairs instead of eating our lunch on the ground outside. It makes moving through a strange country so much more fun if you feel the people are in your side.
