Be Prepared

Just before I head over the border into Iran, I want to let you know about some of the research I have been doing to do so. There are some areas of the world that have political problems that result in war. Sometimes that war is a civil one, or between nations. According to The Foreign & Commonwealth Office:

We advise against all but essential travel to Iran. We advise all British nationals in Iran to keep a low profile. British nationals have been arbitrarily detained in Iran in 2010 and 2011.

I have also read many blog posts and Q&As from people who have recently travelled through Iran, Afghanistan and Pakistan, who have said they had no problems as a British Citizen, the people are friendly, and travel was unhindered. As a virtual traveller, this is not really a problem, but the real traveller is best well prepared.
