After about 81/2 hours, Danny arrived at his new home. We are happy to report that although internet is very bad (going in and out), we are able communicate via Facebook Messenger and/or email.
Danny's new family is very nice and is pretty wealthy in the village. They have their own Banya http://russian-bath.com/ and heat in the house. (Many homes in Kyrgyzstan are not insulated and does not have heat. In the wintertime, people wear multiple layers indoor to stay warm.)
Host parents are farmers and have 6 children ranging from ages 22-9. So far, Danny has met the youngest and the oldest. One child is in Moscow and another is attending University in Bishkek (the capital).The family have many animals... sheep, cows, horses and a few dogs. Host dad also drives an Audi.
