I would suggest you to buy friday issue of vecherny Bishkek newspaper, there you can find plenty of ads, it's better to choose an real estate agency there and contact them. I dont know now what kind of agencies now, I dont remember the names.

I guess by this time you are already in Bishkek and probably you are pretty much to that place. Actually, I am from Kyrgyzstan and I can tell you that this coutry is quite small and it doesn't take much time for you to know thorougly about lifestyle in this country,which you probably witnessing now. Anyways, if you have any further questions or need any tips even after being there for these more than three month, you are welcome to ask anytime. All the best with living in KG.

I have been in Bishkek city for 10 months, the cost of a taxi is 100 com this will get you all most anywhere they do not use meters. beware as soon as you speak english, the fare will double or even triple you may have to ask 2 or 3 taxi but 100 com is the rate about $2.40 american...this is going to happen almost anywhere you go except for the larger stores where the price is marked and they use bar codes . if bringing cash use brand new USD currency only, a visa card for a purchase is useless. money exchange is everywhere but take the time to look around you will find big differance in exchange from one to the other
