Field notes

Uzbekistan's capital — visa-free 30 days for many western passports, easily extendable. Yunusabad and the Mirzo Ulugbek districts are the modern residential pockets. The Soviet-era metro is the actual transport spine. Coworking has grown materially since 2020 — a handful of solid spots downtown now. Cold continental steppe climate — cold winters (regular snow), hot dry summers. Cheap by any global standard, and the Samarkand / Bukhara weekend access is real.
