It sounds you are in a very interesting journey. Well, there are a lot unwritten here, you are not going to have difficulty in finding the topic, though I would think you already have decided on what to write. Have you found a place to stay? I can meet up for coffee and give you very short overview on this culturally very rich country, but thinking I connect you with a guy who used to be my driver for over 6 years, who speak perfect English and he knows the city and the country more than anyone else I know. He has job, but he has the weekend off and I am sure he would be happy to make some extra cash doing something he loves--tourism Let me know if this sounds appealing.
