I’ve been trying to keep up with classes, writing, sightseeing, YouTubing…there’s so much to do! But here are a few pictures to show what’s up in my life at the moment.

Here I am helping Nigina chop the carrots and onion for the plov.

Street at night in Samarkand
Yurt camp; we stayed in the middle one.
Petroglyphs at Sarminshay Gorge
Grasses on the shores of Lake Aydurkal
Scraping the outer bark of the mulberry to get at the yellow underbark for mulberry bark paper, something Samarkand was famous for.
