    I was sitting in my living room in Manhattan watching this wonderful video and I suddenly had an urge to have some Uzbek plov for dinner. So I’m about to get on the subway and head for the Brighton Beach section of Brooklyn to pick some up at the Tashkent Market, which has a large section of prepared hot foods representing not only Uzbekistan but many of the other cuisines of the former Soviet republics!

    My wife and I enjoy your videos. They are very informative. We live 2 hours west of Chicago. Uzbekistan looks like a very clean city compared to many in the USA.

    So nice to hear from you again! It was nice to see Konstantin's family visiting - how about your family? How do you keep in touch with them? Uzbekistan seems to be a pleasant place for lots of internet-connected Russians to land. Do you have thoughts about settling in Uzbekistan more permanently, or maybe moving somewhere else? Being a traveler, you could probably live just about anywhere that has decent connections to other places. How easy is it to travel from Uzbekistan to other countries? (questions, questions...but inquiring minds want to know!)
