Get a postcard from the Desert in Kazakhstan 🏜️🇰🇿

May 12, 2026

Hey guys!

imageWe’ve finally made it to Beyneu after one of the toughest sections of the journey so far. Endless desert roads, brutal winds, carrying litres of water, little sleep and days where it genuinely felt like we were in the middle of nowhere.

We’re now only around 70km away from the border of the next country.

It’s a weird feeling because every border feels like closing one huge chapter and stepping into another unknown one. Different language, different people, different challenges waiting for us on the other side.

Sometimes I sit there and think about how crazy this all is. We left England on foot with a wild idea and somehow we’re still going. Thousands and thousands of kilometres later.

There have been moments out here where I’ve honestly questioned myself. But your support messages, coffees, postcards and comments genuinely keep this journey alive more than you probably realise.

Every bit of support helps us keep moving forward towards Vietnam

Thank you for being part of this journey with

-Chubby Trekka 🇬🇧🚶‍♂️‍➡️🇻🇳
