I first went there 2001, on my own, on the way to flying out to Kazakhstan to marry my wife. (More on that particular set of funk ups some other time, when I'm more relaxed
We now live here in Kazakhstan, which means there is no smoking of anything interesting to be had; although it grows wild out here, a foreigner caught with narcotics (not much difference seen between any drugs out here) is asking to be nailed to the walls by his balls... So, in between going back to the UK to see some family and friends, I am heading out to Dam, meeting up with a good friend, and spending 3 nights there. (21st-24th September). I'm hoping to squeeze in another 4 hour stop over on the way back home.
Anyway, hope all who read this do so in good health, cheers.
