Adventurer Lois Pryce ignores all warnings and embarks on a 3,000- mile journey across Iran by motorcycle (a country where Iranian women aren't allowed to ride motorbikes), discovering what real life is like for people there today
Eine Frau, ein Motorrad und die wagemutigste Reise ihres Lebens
Eines Tages entdeckt Lois Pryce in London einen Zettel an ihrem weitgereisten Motorrad: Eine persönliche Einladung in den Iran, ausgesprochen von einem Fremden namens Habib. Die Neugierde der Abenteurerin ist geweckt. Dass Frauen im Iran offiziell gar kein Motorrad fahren dürfen ... und alle Bekannten ihr dringend davon abraten ... geschenkt! Ihre ebenso mutige wie überraschende Reise in den echten Iran kann beginnen: 5000 Kilometer mit Helm und Hidschab - und zahllosen unvergesslichen Begegnungen.
Funny, insightful and eye-opening, this adventure breaks down misconceptions and reveals a country of wonder and warmth. Emerald Street
