This is the right place to see a camel in its natural habitat

From Bam I pretty easily made it to Chabahar - the southernmost city of Iran. It's located on the shore of Oman Gulf in Arabian Sea.
First glance at Oman Gulf
In general, both Kerman and Baluchestan are quite interesting places.
They are infamous for their criminal and terrorist activities, even some iranians themselves do not dare to go there. It's all due to its proximity to Pakistan and Afghanistan. A lot of drugs and illegals are being trafficked from those countries, especially from Afghanistan.
However, instead of all this I met some of the most welcoming and altruistic people there.
The next day my host from Couchsurfing organized an excursion for me (and his friends-photographers from Tehran) along the coast, in the direction of Pakistan. Great places all around, they made it worth going to such a remote and dangerous place (but Chabahar itself, however, is definitely not worth it).

Our car broke in this place. "It could be worse", I thought and went for a swim. Later when it broke the second time in the middle of the desert it was worse, indeed
