The name says it all - curiosity, unknown and even adventure. These three words best describe Kyrgyzstan. Unknown, as there is little access to the surrounding mountains. Then there's curiosity, as the locals get around on horseback and are semi-nomadic; but also this is a country entirely off the beaten track, and very different to the western lifestyle. Finally adventure, because a trip to Kyrgyzstan is truly epic, as you discover a different, rocky world full of modest and humble people. Kyrgyzstan is not a place for city dwellers or those who like everything served on a platter. The amazing highlands, the highest of mountains and the pace of nomadic life demand a careful planning as opposed to sudden whims. However, for those ready to take it as it comes, this country creates memories unlike anywhere else. A trip of a lifetime with an extraordinary tale to tell, Kyrgyzstan is definitely one to visit!
