Family in pickup camper explores offbeat Dagestan

A family from Istra traveled through Dagestan in a pickup camper, staying at places not on standard tourist routes. They visited the Verkhniy Gunib nature park, Saltinsky waterfall, Karadakh gorge, Matlas stone bowl, Chirkey reservoir, and Sarykum dune. In the park they encountered a wild fox, and near the waterfall they met a German couple in a 1967 vintage car. It is noted that for mountain trips it is better to use a four-wheel-drive vehicle rather than a trailer.

Photographer with three children travels from Volgograd to Turkey in a motorhome

Photographer Irina Sibukova, along with her husband and three children, has been traveling from Volgograd to Turkey in a motorhome for the fourth year. The 2018 motorhome was purchased in 2023 for 6 million rubles. Maintenance costs include insurance of 8,000–15,000 rubles, as well as water, toilet cassette, and battery charging. Few difficulties arise on the road, but in North Ossetia there is no internet or navigation, and in Batumi parking is problematic. Over four years, the family has covered the Mediterranean and Aegean coasts of Turkey from Mersin to Izmir, visiting Cappadocia and Pamukkale. It is noted that Turkey has few good campsites and prices have risen.
