Part 4/7:
To ensure our safety as we headed toward the mountain range, I purchased bear spray, a necessary precaution given the wildlife that might be lurking in the shadows. Istanbul is a city that never sleeps, but as soon as night embraced us, we sought the comfort of warm beds in preparation for the next day.
Crossing into Asia
On day 195, anticipation hung thick in the air as we prepared to cross into Asia. After walking alongside bustling motorways, fueled by a whirlwind of excitement and slight apprehension, we could feel the edge of a new frontier coming ever closer.
However, much to our dismay, we found ourselves at the wrong ferry terminal. With a sigh and a quick decision, we opted to return to our hotel for the night, shifting our plans to ensure a proper crossing the next day.
