Off to Turkmenistan

Equipped with a warm coat, my brand new passport and uncreased $100 bills, I'm off to Turkmenistan today! I'll also have a stopover in Turkey where I'll have the better part of a day to do some quick sight-seeing. For those of you who are not familiar with Turkmenistan, it became independent from the former Soviet Union in 1991 and is North of Iran and Afghanistan (the country in yellow below).

I'll be giving a marketing workshop to artisans interested in selling their wares to the US. Should be a fascinating trip and I hope to have ample Internet access and make a few posts.
