After 13 countries and over 16,000 kilometers on the European continent, I am now cycling to the Asian continent, as I cross the Bosporus in Istanbul. Being the "gateway" to the East, Istanbul has always been a special destination for me. I spend some days exploring this immense city before heading on to cycle the amazing roads Turkey has to offer. Cycling through olive yards, camping on beaches, I love it!
When travelling by bicycle, one thing that always surprises and annoys me is the amount of waste and pollution everywhere. On the side of the road, in the forest, on beaches. No place is spared from human pollution. Not just in Turkey, in every country I cycle through. It's a pandemic that has been wreaking havoc on our planet for 100 years, yet nobody is talking about it; the plastic pandemic.
Note: the original song "Pass it on Down" by Alabama was blocked by KZfaq. Play this song in the background between 16:30 and 19:40.
