AUGUST 29 - September 4, 2026
Join Kevin Kennedy III and a small group of creators, songwriters, musicians, filmmakers, and adventurers for an unforgettable journey through one of the most fascinating countries on the ancient Silk Road.
Uzbekistan is a place where blue-domed mosques rise above desert cities, bustling bazaars overflow with spices and handmade crafts, and centuries of history come alive around every corner. Once a crossroads connecting Europe, Asia, and the Middle East, Uzbekistan offers a blend of culture, architecture, food, and hospitality unlike anywhere else in the world.
For one incredible week, we'll explore legendary Silk Road cities, write original music inspired by the journey, connect with local culture, and document the adventure as part of the Written Abroad series.
Imagine wandering through ancient streets that traders traveled more than 1,000 years ago.
Standing beneath massive turquoise domes in Samarkand. Drinking tea in hidden courtyards. Exploring vibrant markets filled with color, music, and history.
Uzbekistan is one of the most visually stunning countries in Central Asia and remains surprisingly undiscovered by many travelers.
This is a destination that feels like stepping into another world.
