Winning tip: A perfect âstan
Covid willing, weâll be heading to Kyrgyzstan. Itâs at that perfect point where the infrastructure supports a great travel experience, but itâs not become spoiled by tourists. Bishkek is modern and vibrant, and in the stunning rural areas itâs possible to stay with nomads living the traditional life. Itâs one of the most beautiful countries in the world, with delicious locally sourced food. Kyrgyz community-based tourism proved an affordable way to experience the life of horse-riding nomads living in yurts, and the money goes into the community itself.
