Turkmenistan has given me a few positive things. First and foremost, it was the rage built up from Turkmenistan that aided me in chasing a grown man through a busy train station after he groped me. Yes, chased, caught him twice for long enough to hit him on the head before he was halted by other Indian guys and a police officer. I then yelled to women standing near that their men are a disgrace, pointed him out to the police and yelled, "This man grabbed me! THIS MAN. . . ", and was assured by his restrainers that, "Don't worry, he will be punished." A bit more disgracing, and I asked to be let through the crowd. I guess the observation here is that the old saying is true: If you can brave Peace Corps, you can brave anything.
PS We decided against the train. We're taking a bus.
