Hopefully it works out for her in the long run 🙏🏻 npub1kzkzcfh2hkcwp2ds6y8az3vv5u79wkce6e0p8u88fpxta6zq8zeskqyatg GlobalTraces I wasn’t analogising fossil fuels to child brides as much as using it an another example of the west telling the developing nations what they have to do. npub1kzkzcfh2hkcwp2ds6y8az3vv5u79wkce6e0p8u88fpxta6zq8zeskqyatg GlobalTraces You’re talking about sociology, I was referencing anthropology at a more basic level - our shared humanity irrespective of colour, race or creed. npub1kzkzcfh2hkcwp2ds6y8az3vv5u79wkce6e0p8u88fpxta6zq8zeskqyatg GlobalTraces Fuck isolationism. npub1kzkzcfh2hkcwp2ds6y8az3vv5u79wkce6e0p8u88fpxta6zq8zeskqyatg GlobalTraces The Pamir Highway run right alongside Afghanistan for several hundred kilometres. This is one of the wider sections and it’s still this close. npub1kzkzcfh2hkcwp2ds6y8az3vv5u79wkce6e0p8u88fpxta6zq8zeskqyatg GlobalTraces This 💯 npub1kzkzcfh2hkcwp2ds6y8az3vv5u79wkce6e0p8u88fpxta6zq8zeskqyatg GlobalTraces The border fences and regular three-man military patrol teams on the Tajik side are apparently due to a high level of drugs crossing the border. npub1kzkzcfh2hkcwp2ds6y8az3vv5u79wkce6e0p8u88fpxta6zq8zeskqyatg GlobalTraces We’re in Tajikistan. That guy on the motorbike the other side of the river…. Is in Afghanistan! npub1kzkzcfh2hkcwp2ds6y8az3vv5u79wkce6e0p8u88fpxta6zq8zeskqyatg GlobalTraces Get back on the road!

Just about 10mins before totality. npub1kzkzcfh2hkcwp2ds6y8az3vv5u79wkce6e0p8u88fpxta6zq8zeskqyatg GlobalTraces Tajikistan isn’t the best for diesel outside the main cities, and the quality is apparently “questionable”, so we filled with enough to get us through to Dushanbe (the capital) where there is good diesel available. npub1kzkzcfh2hkcwp2ds6y8az3vv5u79wkce6e0p8u88fpxta6zq8zeskqyatg GlobalTraces Not especially. I was baking in an Omnia Oven on our outdoor gas stove, so it’s a slow, low temp process anyway. But it was just about 50mins. npub1kzkzcfh2hkcwp2ds6y8az3vv5u79wkce6e0p8u88fpxta6zq8zeskqyatg GlobalTraces Fresh baked bread at 4300m. npub1kzkzcfh2hkcwp2ds6y8az3vv5u79wkce6e0p8u88fpxta6zq8zeskqyatg GlobalTraces Fantastic!

But only if you need FPV. npub1kzkzcfh2hkcwp2ds6y8az3vv5u79wkce6e0p8u88fpxta6zq8zeskqyatg GlobalTraces Hahaha we have an Avata 2 and she’s had a go on it back in Albania, but it’s back in the UK now as we didn’t want to lose it going through Russia. npub1kzkzcfh2hkcwp2ds6y8az3vv5u79wkce6e0p8u88fpxta6zq8zeskqyatg GlobalTraces Since we were parked literally in the middle of nowhere (we didn’t see or hear anything or anyone for 48hrs) I decided it was time for Jess to have a drone flying lesson. npub1kzkzcfh2hkcwp2ds6y8az3vv5u79wkce6e0p8u88fpxta6zq8zeskqyatg GlobalTraces Awww thanks! npub1kzkzcfh2hkcwp2ds6y8az3vv5u79wkce6e0p8u88fpxta6zq8zeskqyatg GlobalTraces Thanks! npub1kzkzcfh2hkcwp2ds6y8az3vv5u79wkce6e0p8u88fpxta6zq8zeskqyatg GlobalTraces Wow!
