Since my wonderful family will keep me busy for a while and waiting to be able to go back with them on the Central Asia ranges, I would like to periodically propose a trip selection from our partner agencies (but not only them) in those areas (but not only there). To me it will represent a way to continue travelling even from home, but I hope my effort to filter the so many available travel proposals will also be helpful for other people. Even if my goal is certainly not to try to please all kinds of travelling needs, for sure the ones I will highlight from time to time are the "TRIPS I WOULD TAKE"
