Interest in Chechnya is at an all-time high. It is an ancient, fascinating, complex, and little understood place. Our good friend Abdula, local tour guide and couch surfing host, takes us on a virtual tour of his homeland. He delivers expert tips on where to stay, what to eat, and places not to miss. Many of the foods may be practically impossible to pronounce (see the episode tags), but they’re much easier to eat. We can assure from experience that the flavors—and the perhaps surprisingly warm memories—of a trip to Chechnya will linger with all who visit.
