Driving to Kars took a little longer than a day because of the long stops at the borders of Georgia and Turkey. We arrived late after midnight and left for the location next morning with Nesra Gurbuz, our executive producer from Istanbul. I will not tell you about the incident with not knowing about the 2-hour time difference between Yerevan and Kars and demanding breakfast at the hotel somewhere at 6 in the morning, as it’s a shame, and nobody should know about it!
Finally, we visited the Turkish village we were watching from the other side of the border for the last few months. Was quite an unusual feeling. We met different interesting people and heard some interesting opinions, although we didn’t hope to get much on our first visit.
Not knowing the language causes difficulties, but makes all the process more challenging, especially when it comes to dealing with local military forces. The next several days are going to be full of interesting and intense shootings and trips.
And, what is really important, we didn’t forget to take a photo camera with us (I know, I can’t believe it either), and we even remembered to take a charger, unlike the last time. So no more cell-phone-made photos. Mush is taking care of it. Somebody should finally stop David though, he keeps posting them on Facebook like a maniac.
Check back every day, it’s going to be exciting. Neighbors going to a new level.
