Hi All...thanks for everyone's concern on my whereabouts....no worries, I am alive and well, but have been in the pretty disconnected country of Kyrgyzstan...and wireless only exists for $20 per half hour at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Bishkek...that's equal to almost a week's lodging so I refuse to pay it. That means no entries on the blog until I can get a good connection...but it certainly doesn't mean there is a lack of material. My border crossing from China into Kyrgyzstan could possibly beat the experience of showing up at 3:00 a.m on a dirt road in Albania without any reservations or a clue....I am still having visions of gold-teeth, scull cap wearing truckers, flashing police lights, rusty train car skeletons turned into houses and bars and a toothless man named Macho swigging lots of Vodka as he tried to navigate the roads of the snowy Irkeshtam Pass in the dark...can't wait to find a connection and share the adventure!
To be continued......
About Me
In 2007 my mother passed away after a long battle with breast cancer. Afterwards I went to the head doctor and their prescription was to drug me with happy pills. Convinced there was a healthier way to heal, I chose instead to book myself a one way ticket to Cairo and officially became a 34 year old solo female backpacker. I was on the wanderlust trail for 19 months visiting 27 countries along the way. I used this travel experience as a way to reinvent myself and to KICK GRIEF'S butt!! I currently reside in London.
