Well, this question is tough because I have not gone on any expeditions recently. However, I want to talk about the time when I went to Bokhara nearly a year ago. The fact was I needed to reach the destination in around 8 hours, but it took approximately 11 hours. We faced numerous problems along the way. The first one was that the road was under construction, and there was a lot of traffic congestion, which is a normal thing that can cause delays in your journey. However, there were other factors as well. My partners who I went with took a long time for lunch midway, and we had to wait for them. It was frustrating and nerve-wracking since I just wanted to reach the destination and enjoy the beauty of nature. But due to the people I was with, everything was done at a slower pace. By the time we arrived in Bokhara, it was already midnight. I wanted to go to the lakeside and enjoy, but since it was too late, we didn't have enough time to stay by the lakeside. However, we stayed there for some time to have our dinner at the end of our journey, and it was quite fun the next day. Thank you. I doubt now this will keep on.
