Another stupid Scandinavian language joke

Tried two times. Wasn't allowed crossing the Turkish border! (fair enough as I rode around without a numberplate)
Farewell with Casper and Emil at the Turkish border.
Nice couple who spontaneously hosted me for a night in southern Bulgaria
Does it get more dull? A bunch of sheep and goats were crossing these enormous amounts of trash on the way to their grass fields..
This was the shepherd.. In front of what I assume was really toxic waste. I couldn't communicate with him as he was barely able to speak.
Bulgarian grapes
Took a wrong turn somewhere and got lost. Argh! Fucking letters.
First pics of Greece. A country I fell in love with immediately.
Due to heavy rain the bridge was closed temporarily. My yamaha crossed the river perfectly well, though :D
