Features: Red Wolf embarks on a dream journey starting from Constantinople, a historic city at the intersection of Europe and Asia, from the port of Jiaogang—diving, surfing, exploring ancient ruins, searching for oases, hiking, camping, and traveling across the entire territory of Turkey, Egypt, and Iran. Subsequently, he ventures from the Luchun region, dares to enter the turbulent Afghanistan, and crosses the rarely traveled ancient Silk Road. He encounters natural disasters and human misfortunes, explores forgotten ancient wonders, gets captured, interrogated, and sneaks into a closed girls' school. He also forms a deep friendship with the simple Afghan mountain people. With the help of friendly U.S. Marines and International Red Cross doctors, he endures over twenty dark mornings and crosses the Kabul Pass to enter relatively safer Pakistan.
