Spring in Kyrgyzstan


Spring is my favourite season in Kyrgyzstan. Everything turns so green and lovely, and the hills and grass and trees bring me great joy. Especially coming after winter, spring brings with it delight. Among other things, I love the thought that I have 8 months or so before I need to worry about slipping on ice. I really hate ice. If you ask me what I hate the most about Kyrgyzstan, ice is probably number one, followed by dirt and potholes. If you ask me what I love, besides people, I think the mountains and in general the countryside in spring would be number one.

  2. I teach the children of volunteers in Bishkek. I had a look at your blog - really good, detailed stuff! It's exciting that you're getting a chance to experience your birth country as an adult. =)
