I left Isfahan early morning. After 4 hours of road in a barren desert surrounded by ocher cliffs, I came in this modern city at the foot of a mountain, still snow covered. The city is noisy and active. 
The streets teem with cars and motorcycles. I'm only 24 here. I would not have time to meet with contacts Cyrus and her friends give me, I will not have time to know the other side of Iran .
I would not have time to accept the invitation of an Iranian go skiing for the weekend .
I see that the parks Teheran, busy streets, the National Museum and the embassy district. No way to change the dates of my visa Turkmen.
I will drag in the cafe or Naderi Iranian youth and Iranian lunch or just drink tea, it still feels here that Iranian Islam is more liberated than other countries I tie. Young people are not afraid of physical contact and share their table. Tourists do not like
Tehran, but I loved his animation compared to the quiet provincial towns. The nights do not seem very busy but another Tehran exists, I will not see her.
I left the next evening by a train deluxe Mashad with two French and Martial Anne in wedding trip on the Silk Road until late August. The train was spotless, the service excellent, the food was good. Arrive Mashad on 4 in the morning I had time to see the shrine of Imam Reza , one of the holiest sites in Shiite Islam. The Iranians come here each year per million.

I found a bus to the border Turkmen. Some passengers dressed in baggy pants, caps of white and wearing a long beard, his face more angular share my journey. After 3 hours, a former police officer being part of the trip, taking care to find a taxi for the last miles of mountains. He takes the registration number of the taxi and my name, just to reassure me. The taxi will prove very nice and very funny tick, he will kiss me leaving.
The border is a sort of huge building crashed in the mountains, the output of Iran is going smoothly, I am asked what I think of Iran and what I in thought before leaving. We wish me safe journey and told me to pay attention to Turkmen, they will say the same about Uzbeks.
Two young soldiers in the eyes greet me on the side flanges Turkmen, welcomes me, after the passage of a few seconds the doctor, I pass through customs without difficulty and embarks on a shuttle Ashgabat. A border of plus and unlike what I was told, customs and police did not try to extort a few dollars.
