Iraq
Big parking lot free of charge, adjacent to the North Light fuel station. Great night stop if crossing from Turkey at late evening. Coming from the border crossing, turn left and the fuel station is on the right side immediately after.
Spent one night there, it was illuminated and felt safe. There were many other travellers sleeping in their cars, or outside on the ground (it was very hot).
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.
Crossed into Kurdistan late. Camped in the green area next to cafeteria. Staff were happy to let me stay after having a drink and tipping in the shop.
A bit noisy with the road nearby - but other than that a great place to lay down with friendly locals around!
