Howdy, y'all
In my absence, I've been busy cruising around the region (or racing as fast as one might be able in this vast space). I've stumbled upon some recent news worth a gander:
Atlantic Monthly article "The City of White Marble" on Ashgabat, Turkmenistan with great photography of the city. I visit this city for work frequently and continue to marvel at its grandeur.
A cynical look (with great photos) at Murghab, Tajikistan "In the Middle of Somewhere" by Joshua Kucera. The place is completely on top of the world but not quite as bleak as the author conveys. I was completely charmed by the people living here.
Business Insider recently posted a listing of "The 20 Worst Airlines in the World." Central Asia has made room for itself on this list, multiple times.
With humor and straight from the heart of Central Asia, I am humbly yours! Stay tuned for more updates from my recent trip to Uzbekistan!
