Salutations from Cappadocia, Land of Marvels
Hank, up for a spot of trouble on the road?Nah, mate. Not my cup of tea.
Just checked in, where're we at?Near Ankara, at some unknown locale.
What's the current scene?Just waiting, chilling, while hope keeps me warm.
How ya feelin'?Ain't gonna lie, bloody fantastic!
The coldest night I've ever experienced. Stranded at a pass from 10 PM to 5 AM amid snow and blizzard conditions. Summer tires on everything, from trucks and buses to cars, on the Stambul-Ankara highway[4].
But man, it was worth it. The breathtaking scenery and the eerie atmosphere were a sight to behold[5].

You've woken up in some foreign town. Strangers surround you, the city unknown. No idea where you'll be sleeping tonight.
But the road is calling, winding through snow and ice, narrow at times, wide at others. Sometimes empty, sometimes miles of traffic stretched out before you. Yet, every bit paves the way to joy[4].
To my joy, peace, and elation. When a vehicle waits for me outside, and the horizon filled with hundreds of kilometers of road - I'm on cloud nine[6].
It's a feeling hard to explain or comprehend. In this state, there's no room for bad news, negativity, worries, stress, sadness, or monotony[7].
Only harmony, brother. And the road that never seems to end.
