Two Germans drive through Kazakhstan's nothingness and find something they never searched for.
In the second leg of our three-part journey through Asia, we'll be taken to Mongolian yurts, climb the pristine mountains of Kyrgyzstan, and embark on what is probably the longest detour of our lives toward Iran: We'll cross the vast steppe of Kazakhstan—and through endless NOTHING. There, we'll discover something we weren't actually looking for.
