Almost 20,000 kilometers of road trips in a difficult year. 2022
"First, statistics. On trips of various lengths, I dashed off 19,578 kilometers in a year. The farthest was a trip to the Crimea - 9612 kilometers. The distance in a straight line between the extreme eastern (Issyk-Kul) and extreme western (Crimea) points of the routes was 3530 kilometers.

And the "lowest" point of all routes was 30 meters below sea level. It happened in Kazakhstan, on the road along the northern coast of the Caspian Sea.

For comparison with the map that was published in the first post, I offer a map for a quarter of a century of travel. Here we are talking about hundreds of thousands of kilometers of trips.
Finished with this topic. I'll think about it and maybe create a new topic with the most interesting photos of my travels of all time.
Good luck to all!
