Spring is Back

It was warm enough today that I did not wear a coat to work. The beverage vendors have also set up along the sidewalk. So I think this means spring will be staying this time around.

I would like you to post more about life in Bishkek. What is the security situation like? How much does it cost to rent an apartment? Etc...

You are in a unique position to give "on the ground" travel advice to those who may visit Bishkek in the near future.

Crime here is about the same as in any large US city. I pay $250 a month for a one room apartment. But, if you want a nice place with more than one room within walking distance of the center, foreigners often end up paying more than $600 a month.
