The owner of our guesthouse Sakura is kind enough to give us a free upgrade and the room we get is huge. When our time in Fargona is over he also offers his services to help us get to the border. A few phone calls later a cheap taxi is on its way. He even joins us to confirm the price with the taxi driver. Sometimes too good to be true is just true. Our last encounter in Uzbekistan is definitely the most memorable. Our driver keeps us entertained for the whole two-hour drive. From teaching Jasper Uzbek, to asking us how much money we and our parents make. He is astonished that after a relationship of 5 years we still do not have any children and force feeds Jasper some green almonds he picks along the way. They will help him to “shoot” better.
