Steven Hermans is the cofounder of Caravanistan.com. After his first few times traveling in Central Asia and on the Silk Road, Steven was underwhelmed by the amount of accurate and up to date information about this region as a travel destination. 

To solve this problem he built Caravanistan.com, which is now widely considered to be the internet's best source for information about traveling in Central Asia and on the Silk Road. 

Home to tons of practical advice and resources, an active forum community, and a list of vetted visa companies and tour operators, Caravanistan is an extremely useful collection of information for anyone interested in traveling to Central Asia. 

In this episode, we talk about traveling in Central Asia, the formation and management of the website, an ideal 30 day itinerary, how travel influencers and organized events are changing travel in the region.

Check out Caravanistan.com for more information.
