Hello all! Well I knlw it has been a while since I have posted, like six months. A lot has happened since the last time I posted including trips to America, Croatia and Italy. Winter in Taraz has come and gone and at this moment we are preparing for central Asian new years. To tell the truth , I had just about decided to close this blog because not much interesting had been going on lately. I changed my mind because when I was in the states I realized that all the strange, interesting, downright amazing stuff that happens here to me everyday had become the norm for me so I guess I wrongly thought it was no longer worth writing about. The prob is , when I was home in the states everyone asked me why I was not posting on my blog. So I will try and get a post up at least every two weeks to let you all know what is going on and that I have not fallen off the edge of the earth. Cya later..
