I'm living in probably the world's most diverse country. It's a country the size of Europe with double the population and I've barely scratched the surface. I'm taking a week off so I should try and get to those hard to reach bits. I should go trekking in Sikkim. I should stay with the tribes in Nagaland. I should wander the temples in Tamil Nadu. I should swim with turtles in the Andamans. I don't even know where to start.
So I'm in Kyrgyzstan.
First evening, positively surprised at how western it seems. Not sure if it's the juxtaposition with India but Bishkek seems completely European. They have footways. They have traffic lights. They have beef. You can walk around. Don't get me wrong, you're unlikely to think you're in Provence - there's too much Cyrillic for that - but more European than Albania for sure.
