Cool write up. I happened upon this website just a couple of days ago:
https://www.nomadasaurus.com/breaking-tr...alan-trek/
I'm a sucker for high mountains and Kyrgyzstan is going way up on my travel list. It seems like it's really taking off and it's getting close to being in that sweet spot where tourism is decently well developed but not overrun with gringos. My friend told me about some travel guru whose blog she follows and this guy said Kyrgyzstan was his favorite of well over 100 countries he'd been to.
What's the story with public transport? Is renting a car the only way to get around?
I'd be interested in hearing more details in general.
