Tajikistan

Let your branches grow so they can feel the wind and carry the snow. :)
Life goes as it goes and there was a great country to visit and discover again, Tajikistan. Tajikistan is a presidential republic and is bordered by Afghanistan to the south, Uzbekistan to the west, Kyrgyzstan to the north, and China to the east. It was part of Persia and the Soviet Union and today it is a developing country with amazing 93% of the land covered in mountains!

They had a great problem with deforestation and some parts of the country miss around 70 % of the trees. To heat and cook they need electricity or firewood, and spend sometimes hours of trying to find it.
