Located at the crossroads of Central Asia, the city of Karakol in eastern Kyrgyzstan is a fascinating gateway to the region's diverse history, cuisine, and nature. Many unique cultures contribute to the town's culinary history and cultural heritage: Kyrgyz, Tatar, Russian, Dungan, Uyghur, Kalmyk, Uzbek, and more. And with both the Tian Shan Mountains and Lake Issyk-Kul nearby, you'll discover limitless outdoor adventure opportunities, too. Whether you're visiting for the trekking, the food, or just pure relaxation, you'll find it here.

A Homey Hostel in Karakol
A Homey Hostel with a Stunning View in Karakol? This is The Answer!
So this is part of my one week journey in Kyrgyzstan. I arrived in this small town called Karakol. For those who don’t know, Karakol is a gateway to stunning destinations in Kyrgyzstan, from stunning forests and mountains in Altyn Arashan to mars-like landscape in Skazka Canyon.
For the accommodation, I stayed in this humble hostel called Snow Leopard Hostel. The host, Alzada, is the most friendliest host I found. She guided me on what kinds of amenities and facilities that this hostel has. And also, she has cute children to have fun with!
To be honest, I like this room so much! Not only because of the homey feeling to it, it also has a stunning view in the morning! Even though my trip got distrupted in Kyrgyzstan, especially only having limited amount of cash, this view truly makes me forget all of the chaos.
If I could visit in Kyrgyzstan once again, without any doubt I would like to stay at this hostel for staycation!

Getting There -
Jeti-Oguz Canyon is approximately 20km from the town of Karakol in Kyrgyzstan 🇰🇬!
The most common way to reach the canyon is by private vehicle, taxi, or organized tour. The road from Karakol to Jeti-Oguz offers scenic views of the surrounding landscapes and takes about 40 minutes. It was ABSOLUTELY worth it!
Food and Restaurants - At the bottom of the short hike to the viewpoint there is a small local restaurant. They serve traditional Kyrgyz cuisine and international dishes. Make sure you try the lagman! They have the soup lagman and the stir fries lagman and they are absolutely delicious! The place isn’t too busy and has a good ambience and is very nice to rest just after your hike to the viewpoint! #kyrgyzstan

A Whispers of Wisdom Amid the New Year's Hype 🌟💭
While everyone is busy creating vision boards and wish lists, let me share a little secret with you.
Financial flow is an innate gift, like blue eyes, curly hair, or the Rothschild surname. You won't manifest it in workshops.
Happiness isn't an Instagram post with a beautiful backdrop and a Lamborghini in Dubai; it's a homemade meat salad in your own kitchen! And today, my kitchen will be an island of delight in the global sea of whatever.
I just wrapped up my last project of the year and plan to hibernate under blankets, where nobody can see me. Consider it my holiday! How long are you working until?
