Workinonit!


Things are getting better. First, I discovered that the online map I was usinghad in my head was upside down. I had been using the sun as a compass, which was leading me in the opposite direction of wherever I tried to go. Second, I found the American consulate. They reminded me that I have a credit card, something I was unable to use in China.

Everything here is actually much more up to speed with the West; the only confusing part is that everything is written in Kazakh and Russian, and everybody is speaking Kazakh and Russian. After spending so much time either on empty roads or in relatively peaceful Chinese cities, jumping headfirst into something so completely different from anything I've ever experienced put me into a state of shock. I was scared to try to talk to people, so I would just drive around looking for things for so long that I would forget what I was looking for in the first place.
