A few months in the making, and now confirmed. I finally got the last piece of the puzzle--the visa--and will be heading to Iran in late May for 10 days. Americans cannot travel to Iran unescorted, so I worked with an Iranian travel agency to essentially create a tour for one. Tehran, Yadz, Shiraz, Esfahan, and all the historical and political sights in between. I hope to blog from there, so watch this space.
