Life around 3030 or Zozo
Despite the drama and U.S. government shutdown that happened midtrip in Kyrgyzstan, I enjoyed a journey through the country. Up over the mountains, the highest roadside peak is called "Zozo" because the sign sharing its elevation of 3030 looks like the Cyrillic "Z". Real life is always outside of the capitals and cities (I've always thought this about the U.S. as well), and I had a great time bouncing over the roads of Kochkor, Naryn, and Issyk Kul. Delights were found around every corner. Take a look!

A City Where the Roses Bloom
I spent every free moment I could find last week wandering Bishkek's green, tree-lined streets and rose-filled gardens.

Splendor on the Way to Bishkek
Gorgeous a day and lucky was I to enjoy its wonder on the road between Almaty and Bishkek.
