Local Azeris traveled horseback and on donkeys, while local Turks (even middle-aged) were riding bicycles. <br /><br />When I told this observation of mine to a Turk, he said "we don't have to feed them or to buy petrol, thus it is most efficient and practical way of transportation here."<br /><br />Thus, I was surprised that how local Azeris don't get this simple truth. It seems to be clever you have to be continuously exiled and exiled (like Jews and Meskhetian Turks).LIVLIVS MAXIMVShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12092771721076216259noreply@blogger.com
