Hello from Tajikistan
« on: August 23, 2009, 05:14:55 AM »
Hello, I go by the name Stary Ohotnik (Old Hunter) in Russian. I am from Michigan and am an old hunter. I have been in Tajikistan for about a year. I will soon know if I will stay for a new contract of a couple more years here. Some excellent hunting in Tajikistan. I don't check in very often but will be happy to talk about hunting in Central Asia or Michigan or anywhere else.

Dear Cheesehead,

Nice bike! I used to live in the UP so I was close to Cheese Land.

Welcome to the forum Stary Ohotnik. It's not often we get folks checking in from Tajikistan. I'd bet you are probably the first. Looking forward to hearing about the hunting in that part of the world.

What type of work would a man from the mid west be doing in tajikistan? If I may ask. That looks like some rugged, poor country and located awful close to obama's mentor, osama,
