A museum worktable with a large printed map of Central Asia. Kyrgyzstan is highlighted in yellow. Around it are readable labels: Kazakh steppe, Fergana Valley, Tajik highlands, western China. A sticky note on Kyrgyzstan says “remote mountain corner?” with a small tea stain touching the question mark. A pencil and a crooked school-group schedule sit nearby.
