Meeting solo travelers in Uzbekistan and Khiva is beautiful

I went to Uzbekistan whole leg trip with a tour last year cause I was scared of the language barrier. And I didnt want to think of booking separate tours for different cities since theyre all historic and theres many things to do. But now that Ive seen it I would definifely go there again by myself. to Khiva esp. that place took my breath away and I felt once was not enough. So I can do it at the slow pace I need. The trains are fast. Super safe. I met a filipino teacher mid age on her summer break traveling solo there and we meet again in the airport, hers back to manila and me to seoul korea. Serendipity! I went to kazakh by myself almaty, did trips by booking online on my own prior coming into tashkent and that place… also unforgettable. Dont discount the neighboring countries too.
