Nastya Kuznetsova, guide of the 7 Summits Club from Turkey:

Greetings to all from Turkey from the city of Van, the pearl of eastern Anatolia! From here, our team will start tomorrow on Ararat, the highest peak in Turkey (5165 m). Today was a busy day. We met the group, found the lost luggage. Then we took a walk through the ancient fortress of the Urartu times, visited the archaeological museum, checked all the equipment, met the sunset on Lake Van, celebrated the meeting and got ready to go ahead to meet adventures! Your Boris Egorov and Anastasia Kuznetsova, 200 km from Ararat!

And yes, we practically took part in a Kurdish wedding!
