This time, I was more experienced at finding a route for my morning run.
Later, I took another walk through the city, mainly to explore the train station and access to the platform, but also to find that large supermarket from Saturday to buy cereal. But I failed and went to another one. Then I struggled with the train app to buy the next train ticket. I managed that, but then couldn’t find the ticket in the app. (This is necessary because you then have a QR code that allows you to get through the barrier.)
A message came from Turkmenistan from a potential travel partner in Australia, which didn’t reduce the price to two-thirds, but only by €100, because he wanted to pack more into the tour. But I see it as a win-win situation, because I would get more for less money and, with a bit of luck, also have someone with whom I can share this rather unique experience. For our last evening, Li and Glen had opted for hot pot at Chin Hua Jiao, for me a rather elegant place, and a great dinner with them.
