I love markets - whether that means souqs, flea markets, or as in #Ashgabat: the Tolkuchka #Bazaar. I vary rarely actually *shop*, heaven forbid, but they're always great for photos and usually also a good chance to have fun quick interactions. Modern Tolkuchka is missing all the narrow-alley atmosphere of an old Central Asian market, to be sure, but the fabrics and carpets and jewelry are just about colorful enough to make up for it and folks are real friendly (...at least until a camera comes out) throughout.

I'm not the first to say so and certainly won't be the last, but Ashgabat's Berzingi district really is... something.

Always a genuine pleasure to spend a day wandering the streets of #Istanbul, even if only for the briefest of visits.

Finally made time to visit the Tolon Museum of Modern Art in Kuntuu about half an hour from Bishkek, which I've been told about for ages but never made time for. It's impressive, and huge, and well worth the trip. @fleur_gul and I ended up wandering nearly 2.5h and had the place more or less to ourselves.

(Entry is 1800som though.)

It's currently that delightful time of year in #DiscoverKyrgyzstan when you can experience a bit of summer, fall, and winter all in one morning.

Very nice to be back in the mountains of #DiscoverKyrgyzstan, if only for the briefest of moments.

Where there may not be mountains in Ontario, that's not to say there are no views. A pleasant little walk at Rattlesnake Point to round out our time in Canada.

Looking for a quick hit of nature outside Toronto, @allyatworld suggested the Muskoka Lakes. She did not mislead.

Listen, I know it looks like we live in the forest or something, but I promise @fleur_gul and I do cultural things sometimes as well.

It might be Niagara that gets all the accolades, but Quebec's Montmorency Falls isn't so shabby either.

If Montreal is a pleasant Canadian surprise, then Quebec City is a wow. Wish we'd had another day to spend. #🍁
