Today early in the morning at 4 AM I arrived in Tashkent

This morning I arrived at Tashkent's international airport, where my flight from Kazan landed shortly before 4 AM after a three-hour journey. Luckily, I still felt quite comfortable because it didn't take long to get through security and border control. Everything at the airport was especially fast and easy, and I spent just 30 minutes going through all the airport procedures. So by 5 AM I was already in my hotel room, lying in bed and trying to fall asleep after the trip.

As I arrived so late today, I skipped my hotel's breakfast and slept until 10 AM. Of course, that was pretty predictable after such a long trip from my hometown to Kazan and then to Tashkent. And it seemed like the receptionist already expected that, too. He even joked that I would probably skip breakfast.

Still, I was busy with my own tasks during the day, which I had planned to complete during this trip. So from 2 PM until 6 PM, I visited a mobile phone store to buy a local eSIM and also began preparing some documents to open a new bank account here. After that, I spent about three hours sitting and waiting in a queue at a government department office, surrounded by lots of people. Even though it was a bit annoying and frustrating, this day was still successful and productive, as I managed to complete some of the tasks I had planned.
