Home > Notebook > Southeast Asia In Northern Iran

Caspian coast and the road from Rasht to Masuleh could be somewhere in Laos. Rice paddies backed by forested mountains with peaks in clouds. But when you look carefully you can see that the vegetation is not that lush, houses are not built on stilts and their roofs are not made corrugated iron and the paddies are not flooded.

Seeing all this felt a little like coming back home. (Note: I love Southeast Asia and I spent there a year so far – with more to come – and I consider it my second home.)
