We are in Kyrgyzstan now after a long day on the road! The route to the border led us through a little inhabited mostly arid mountain region, interrupted not only by several checkpoints with lengthy procedures but also multiple customs and immigration stations.

Thus, we only arrived at the final border post short before it opened again for the afternoon - much later than planned. After walking a kilometer to the first Kyrgyz border post, a friendly truck driver picked us up to the actual customs port.

From here, a very friendly nd caring driver picked us up to Osh, and we made our way through a much greener scenery with spectacular snow mountains...
