Uzbekistan (November, 2019) – Traipsing around in the Silk Road city of Khiva; the epic centre of cross culture knowledge, wisdom, religion and trade has been a long held dream. Walking the historical stone roads and taking in the breathtaking blues, turquoise and white painted tiles have been mentally stimulating. The site of numerous sufi tombs are tranquil and peaceful similar to moments visiting with familiar ancestors long since past, perhaps in part because this assignment honours my grandparents.
