Howdy all. Last year I came up with idea of trying to work out how you would spend a weekend in various cities with only $200USD in your pocket. Fly in early morning on Saturday and leave Sunday evening. This year, I am only making a small adjustment to the concept, and that is that …
Come see the sights of the incredible Samarkand, Uzbekistan! A real Silk Road treasure!

As Kazakhstan has been a place I've been writing about of late, I thought I would share my old video I shot in 2011 (and edited a couple of years later) in this curious destination.
