Dushanbe, Tajikistan, baby!
I am in the process of learning as many fun facts as I can about this fascinating little country tucked among Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, China, Pakistan and Afghanistan. It will be my home for 2 years beginning in February 2011. So far I have gleaned the following:
** Fabulous fresh fruits and vegetables are available at the market in Dushanbe most months of the year. Praise Jesus! This vegan is over-the-moon.
** The unibrow leads a rich and vibrant life.
** Tajikistan is one of the most mountainous countries on earth. Right. Post-Christmas I am armed with REI gift certificates and hell-bent on learning to hike…and like it!
** Um … it is really bloody difficult to reach Dushanbe. I will soon find out who *really* loves me
** It appears that Dushanbe is not a regular stop on Phoenix’s touring schedule. Drat.
Among Con Gen training and consumables- and vehicle- and clothes-shopping and packout and departmental consultations and vaccines and hopefully squeezing in one last visit to Austin and and and … I look forward to learning more. Anybody have any insight?
Cheers!
