It's 2011, and British writer Nick Hunt is almost at journey's end. For most of the year, he's been tracing the route walked in 1933 by legendary traveller Patrick Leigh Fermor (a man described by a BBC journalist as "a cross between Indiana Jones, James Bond and Graham Greene") - and now, after many adventures, sprawling Istanbul is in sight:

September approaches with remarkable speed, so much so that I kind of can't believe that 2020 has disappeared as quickly as it has.
The fall is always one of the best times to travel, as the summer holiday travellers to the most popular destinations have left and the summer heat in many places begins to dissipate to much more comfortable weather for exploring.
