This week we have Jan Bakker, author of Cicerone's Trekking in Tajikistan guidedbook, and founder of the Pamir Trail.

Jan shares why Tajikistan is such an incredible trekking destination, and some of his favourite places to trek, from those who are new to the country to some of the more challenging and remote treks.

Jan also shares how he ended up writing a guidebook for trekking in Tajikistan, and why he is now working to create the 1,000km Pamir Trail, a thru-hike that takes trekkers through some of the most beautiful parts of Tajikistan.
