Solo travel experience
I went to Kyrgyzstan and enjoyed it so much. The people were pretty friendly, especially when I got out of the cities. Home stays through community based tourism was enjoyable and pretty cheap. Regional airlines are the best way to get around the country or jump to another as they are quick and super reasonable priced. Driving longer distances can take forever due to poor road infrastructure and mountainous terrain.
