2003 12: USA
At the end of my first year working overseas, I head back to the states to take care of things and visit people. Looking back I’d say it’s amusing how I spent 4ish days in Tashkent on the way out, most of the rest of the time equally split between seeing people and missing others (on both continents), and almost 5 days in Tashkent on the way out. That was the last trip we’d be able to spend extra time there, due to the PM’s continual worrying about our “safety” and the equally idiotic behavior of some of the morons there.
