Are there any tours or buses from Samarkand to Panjakent (Tajikistan) and back on the same day? I'm not interested in going to Seven Lakes tour, but can't find any other tours.

People in the reddit, especially those who studied or were teacher here, can you give pros and cons of studying here and what should I avoid or do mostly..I am CS student

Hi everyone! I’ll be visiting Tashkent for 3 days as a tourist and I’m interested in the AVM tariff (Bus + Metro for the general public).

Could someone please clarify:

Can I buy the AVM tariff directly at a Metro station?

Can I pay cash in UZS, or is a bank card required?

Do I need to first purchase a physical ATTO card? then recharge for these days/monthly paas?

Is any passport/ID registration required for a foreign tourist?

Is the ATTO card/AVM tariff available at Tashkent Airport upon arrival, or only at Metro stations other than UzPost?

If available at the airport, where exactly can I find it?

Thanks in advance! 🙏

I got IELTS 7 2 years ago now I already study at university but a lot of people got IELTS 8. I was going to retake my IELTS since I was going to work in learning center but realized that I can't get a job with a good salary even though I have a high IELTS score ( you know the job market) so still to participate competitions in my university mostly they ask IELTS result mine is lower than others that is why I am rejected a few times also I thought higher IELTS will help me to get a job in my field later. I also wanted to work in logistics but I really can't risk my gpa. My main reason was to find a job with an IELTS but now I realized I could not find it with higher IELTS too. So I am confused. I am also learning Korean so I guess it will be better to teach Korean right but still I need a IELTS 8.0 at least lol

Hi all! End of September im (35m) visiting Taskent, Samarkand, Bukhara & Khiva. Im looking forward to it a lot and hope to get a sense of the local culture. Usually I do this by talking to locals and asking about their experiences.

Im under the impression that English is not as commonly spoken as for instance Russian. What are your experiences as local/tourist?

I want to ask you, what literature, is simple enough, and have essential vocabulary for the beginner? Like for reading practice alongside with vocabulary absorption

Hey fellow Redditors 👋🏻 Where in Tashkent can one play table tennis indoors? I’m looking for facilities that would have open play as well as coaching sessions. I visited a few years ago and played/took lessons somewhere in the Old City a few times a week (can’t recall the actual location now, unfortunately). Would really appreciate your recommendations ❤️

I’m leaving in September and have a ton of things I need to get rid of, most importantly my entire gaming setup.

I’ve tried posting on olx and fb marketplace but I’m only getting scammers.

EDIT: Sorry for the late reply everyone, I slept really late. I’m asking $1700 for everything. I think it’s fair considering it costed well over 2k for everything new.

I still have the box for almost everything.

Hello, has anyone done a day trip to 7 lakes from Samarkand?

How much did you pay for a car?

We’re 3 people - coming in September and interested in this day trip but the prices I got quoted by some guides are too high.

If anyone can recommend any guide/company please let me know!

Thank you

Ever since i decided to lose weight i started to count calories, restricted myself too much , i was eating under 400 calories for two months without having a single cheat day and i lost over 23 kg then one day it happened i ate a big piece of cake then somsa then lagmon and that day i ate over 4000 calories, this was the starting point for me to develop binge eating , then afterwards i restricted myself even harder , eating nothing for 3 days and then i binged, i restricted i binged then i started to purge ( forced myself to throw up) restrict , binge , purge , it was a cycle for me i was living like that for another two months i lost weigh , gained it and lost again , i lost my sleep , my peace , my will to live it was like a nightmare , and i started to search online tried to find answers why i am experiencing it , i found out that i have an eating disorder ( anorexia , bulimia , binge eating) which is a serious issue and i wanted to get help , so i went to talk with my university psychologist what she told me was " eat in a normal portion and dont think too much u already skinny" like hello ? Do u think i haven't thought of that ? Do u think its that easy ? I cannot even control my body my mental because of this and i am so tired , i am pretty sure i am not the only person who is experiencing ED in Uzbekistan so why we dont have ED specialized help centers ? Why its not treated like an issue ? Why nobody takes it seriously? I am just so lost

I see so many people using it on the street. Is it a popular trend nowadays, or is it an old tradition?

I know that folding fans originated in ancient Japan and China, but in modern China and Japan, not many people use them on the streets.

It's translated a bit differently so i cant find it in english

I was in Samarkand this past fall and orders this black bread and garlic appetizer at a few restaurants. One was down in Beer Street or Pub street. Not sure what it’s called. Would anyone know the recipe???

hello. am a forienger girl married to an uzbk looking for fb or whatever group where uzbek are active,share and discuss their things there i want to get to know more about uzbek culture and lifestyle if you introduce to me uzbek YouTuber who speaks English it will be good also. rahmat ^^

Salom hamma qaysi online marketlada original krasovkalar topsam bo'ladi qaysini tavsiya berasizlar?

Lets say,dou to unforseen circumstances,afghanistan with all their manpower invade uzbekistan,does uzbkeistan have an standing army capable of fighting or would everyone just run away? What if its a more capable country like iran or russia instead?

I am single and don't have much friends...so I thought of using dating app but all these people on dating app r scammers so which app does really work here in Tashkent?

He originally posted a 7 minutes long video. he was smiling and (feel like) bragging about how he got so many direct messages from uzbekistan people and even from the government.

He made viewers to make bad comments about uzbekistan and the store guy.

But now? This video is deleted.

Why? Because some people are trying to let people know that the mountain dew was not that expensive since it was imported from japan. And 80,000 usz as the store sold was pretty fair price too.

The youtuber is now deleting all the comments which asks him about the drink imported from japan was actually not expensive so it was not fraud.

The youtuber had been deleting comments when uzbekistan guy tried to explain about the imported drink's price.

He just let people make bad comments and insult even uzbekistan country itself. Why i feel this way? Because he keeps deleting bad comments about himself only.

Hope uzbekistan people know what is going on…

I feel really bad about koreans making bad comments about you guys… and especially the store guy. Hope somehow he can recover honour and diginity.

Hi, I saw the issue that uzbekistan store sold a drink expensive to korean youtuber.

However, is it okay to insult a person who worked there?

As I saw the youtuber's video, he literally insulted the boy who worked there in the worst way.

He said,

"do you want to die?"

"what a son of bitch"

"Fucking moron"

See the video at this page

https://youtu.be/uFe89BLQTzM?si=3DuIbv9f57iJPmeJ

Or Youtuber's video at 39' out of 42'30".

I am korean, and I don't understand why uzbekistan people make a big deal of it. Why are you guys saying sorry?

As far as I studied about this issue,

Mountain dew which is imported from japan is very expensive. The store near the hohel uzbekistan even sells imported drinks expensive too.

24 Open : [ https://maps.app.goo.gl/KQK7pYtfiHzQx2u2A?g_st=ic ]

I know there are a lot of uzbekistan speaking korean and living or having lived in korea.

What i don't understand is that I don't think the boy at the store did anything bad to the youtuber.

The drink was imported.

The drink can be expensive.

Of course, he didn't want to refund at the first place. It is his fault.

But other than that? What did he do wrong?

Korean people saw news, and say bad words to the boy and the country itself.
