Hello everyone/السلام عليكم

In this summer I will travel down the east of Europe, throu Turkey and in to Iran by bike. I'm a 23 year old man born and raised in the north of Europe. I am now trying to learn the basics of Islam and the manners and culture of Turkey and Iran. Im my self for the moment more of the agnostic kind of guy with a bit of interest in the buddist way of life.

I would be very thankful for any general type of tips or if there is any book, movie or similare that you would recomend me.

Thanks you for your time
