The Central Asian Pamir Highway has many surprises in store for its travelers. Our journey will take us some 1,300 kilometers, beginning in Tajikistan, then down the River Panj along the border with Afghanistan, and on to Kyrgyzstan. Along the way, we meet interesting people willing to tell us their stories, from homestay hosts and instrument builders to women running their homesteads in the absence of their husbands. Breathtaking 7,000-meter mountains named after communist heroes are the backdrop for our adventurous trip over incredible mountain passes. At 4,000 meters we meet young people en route to China, at 5,000 meters we camp with nomads. In Kyrgyzstan, we happen upon an incredible park dedicated to important thinkers, scientists, and religious tolerance. Overall, this is a journey for the eye as well as for the mind!
