Back in the years 2006 and 2007, I managed a company where we decided to set-up an assembly production facility in Teheran, Iran. This meant a few trips to the capital of Iran. I unfortunately did not have time to see anything of this supposedly beautiful country filled with amazing architectural sites. The few shots are from a mobile phone hence the poor quality. There is a trip penciled in my travel-plans hopefully in the not so distant future. My main takeaway from these trips are the hard-working, dedicated and friendly people.

Coming through overland, we once more had to face the corrupt border officials wanting an additional 15 dollars per head to let us through. We early on had agreed not to pay any such extra fees, not wanting to encourage this type of behavior. This often (always) means delays and "waiting out the other party", but worth it. The country was great however. We covered most of the country overland and participated in Easter Mass, visited the famous Albert Schweitzer clinic and hospital - set up in the 1920-ies among other things. We also made a stop at the point of crossing the Equator.
