Whoa...what is that? A headline in Russian?
What it means: WELCOME TO KIRGIZTAN!
No, we haven't abandoned our plans to travel to California this winter. But it doesn't hurt to get into top travel mood, and YouTube has helped me a lot that way.
If you click on the link down below you might also get bitten of the travel virus. It is part of a travel series about a very nice sympathetic young German couple (May-Brit and Niklas)
who suffer of a serious case of travel virus. They simply left Germany in a 57-year old Mercedes truck, converted into a beautiful motor home and traveled through central Asia as far as Mongolia. Their videos, which are published once every week, are simply beautifully done with great photography and their narrative. Don't mind the German language, you will still be able to enjoy their travels. The latest link lets you join the couple when they travel through Kirgizstan, a former Soviet Republic.
What was most surprising for me, who has never been in Asia, was the modern infrastructure the main cities are showing. Super nice paved highways, futuristic high rises besides of beautiful historic architecture. Super markets which at least are at the same standard as in Central Europe and North America, and last but not least very friendly people. Their journey must be an inspiration to everyone who wants to see the world.
