Looking Back
Let me say just one thing: this was one of the most amazing trips I've ever had. Central Asia is quite hard to understand, which is pretty obvious, given its cultural, political and historical diversity. It was therefore even more worth a trip. It's not always easy to travel, though, which is probably why we basically met no other travellers at all. But again, it's a unique place and definitely something one should have seen once. So feel encouraged, folks! Thanks again for all the support we had, from our families and friends, from all the amazing people in Kazakhstan and from all others that helped us in place (I'm just thinking about what we had done without any help at the Kazakh-Uzbek border, left alone with this nasty declaration form, which existed only in Russian and Uzbek...;-)..we'd probably still be in jail or so..). See you at the show..or rather on the next trip! Rock on, Dan

Absolutely! Great trip, nice people and a stunning clash of cultures. I will always remember Asian looking people, going to a Mosque and talking Russian. I didn't know this would be possible when we started the trip. Not the last time we travelled that part of the world, in sha Allah!
