Would love to hear what you think. Thanks.

The drag of endless mental work in a strange land takes its toll. Fatigue can kill so petty escapades provide hopeful deviations from the brewing madness. An aging DSLR keeps good company to a walk around the neighbourhood, a short drive to a scenic place, or a silent recollection in a quiet nook granting that the host community and the elements of nature would allow one a safe passage to solitude and contemplation. Loneliness quickly turns to joy when something exciting gets captured by the cam’s shutter then set free into the laptop’s screen followed by electric words that rush from the fingers to the keyboard in an effort to describe the moment. Alas, the brain is alive once again!

Hello, viveka. Yes, the cars look out of place but they’re becoming a more frequent sight in the steppe. They are owned by either the herders themselves or their relatives visiting from the cities. A long time ago, the nomadic herders’ gear were being transported across the steppe by large carriages drawn by bulls. Now, they’re using trucks and 4×4’s. Regards.
