Thursday evening I packed my backpack and went to Warszawa Centralna. 04.10 1.30 am Train Warsaw-Krakow The journey started. I always have mixed feeling before trips - excitement and also worry.

The weather was great and I got the [View Full Entry]

Short facts: Distance - 400km from Warsaw to Zakopane Length - around 4 days Music - Death Note soundtrack and Chinese audio lessons I was considering for quite long either to go to Zakopane with Erasmus people or not. Main concern was what will I do there if I don't like skiing and trekking was not possible because of the snowfall. But eventually I decided to go. Me and other 3 people were late to have places in the bus, but we had places in hostel so all we needed is to get there by train. Which made me happy as [View Full Entry]

My trip to SE Asia was really unexpected fast choice. Instead of China travel, which I was doing nothing for, I decided to do Thailand-Cambodia-Vietnam-Laos trip. June 11, I got in to taxi and went to Tashkent airport. As expected it was a bit messy there. I had no lil shitty paper they gave me 4 months ago, so I was already panicked that I wont get into the plane in first place. But it went out good and eventually I was on Uzbekistan airways plane, 6 hours flight to Bangkok. The services in the plane was better than I expected! [View Full Entry]

So, one nice thursday morning we head out to what is considered to be the most beautiful part of Uzbekistan - Fergana Valley. First part was getting to to the place in Tashkent where taxies to Fergana leave. Me, Roman and Vidmantas were just standing and waiting while Bekzod was negotiating the price with the swarm of taxi drivers. Typical sight in Uzbekistan. After some negotiation one of the swarm was selected, as we experienced later not the best one. The way to Fergana is very beautiful - liek a scenary from Lord of the Rings, except of army man with [View Full Entry]

One nice day in Tashkent we were in a big hurry to go to train leaving for Urgench. Why such a hurry? Well, trip was planned long time before, but plans changes and the final decision to go on a trip which will last about a week was made a day before. But we were able to come in time to train station and buy first class ticket (“we” means me, my Uzbek friend Bekzod and my Czech friend Roman). So that’s how it started. First of all we had to survive 20 hours on train, which did not seem too [View Full Entry]
