I would like to explain a little about horse meat. Many Westerners will think that how can you eat horse meat? In Kazakhstan there are two types of horse meat: for racing and specifically for food. and I’ll tell you horse meat is the most environmentally friendly meat. our horses graze in the steppes, eat wormwood and are not sick with chemicals.

[@bongertube]

Western supermarkets sell horse meat too, little, but it’s being eaten.

Almaty: A City of Contracts Almaty, a captivating blend of Eastern charm and Western modernity, presents a city of striking contrasts. Its stunning mountain backdrop, lush parks, and vibrant cultural scene make it a tourist's paradise. However, beneath this alluring facade lies a complex reality marred by the insidious presence of corruption. The city's opulent buildings and luxury cars stand in stark contrast to the impoverished neighborhoods that dot its outskirts. While international investors are drawn to its economic potential, local businesses often find themselves entangled in bureaucratic red tape and demands for bribes. Despite the challenges posed by corruption, Almaty's spirit remains resilient. Its people, known for their warmth and hospitality, continue to strive for a better future. A growing civil society is emerging, with activists and organizations working tirelessly to combat corruption and promote transparency. Almaty's journey towards a brighter future will undoubtedly be arduous, but the city's inherent beauty and the determination of its people offer hope for a day when corruption is a relic of the past. Would you like to explore a specific aspect of Almaty or corruption in more detail?

In some areas, Kazakhstan is more developed than the United States or European countries, for example, banking services through a smartphone application. We do not need to go to the bank to open or close a bank account, payment card, deposit account. Through a banking application, you can transfer money to a user in the same bank, another bank, and even to a foreign account in seconds. In the same application, you can pay for any services, from paying for utilities to paying for tuition at any university. Through the application, you can order any purchases in any stores with delivery. We also have an electronic government application, where you can get any service from the state, any official documents, and you can even arrange the purchase or sale of a car without leaving home.

I am an Almaty citizen since birth. But currently I live in the states. Have lived in couple of different continents and traveled a bit… I can proudly say Almaty is one of the most convenient cities in the world as well as one of the most beautiful. It definitely has its own backsides but in general it’s good place to live and have family. I appreciate your openness and kindness Douglas, willingness to try horse meat and live in yurt. However, there is one suggestion, I wish you would learn 2-3 important words in kazakh: as thank you, good buy and hello and not reply in russian. As respect to our culture and language we try to speak in kazakh with kazakh person, especially when you greet elderly. It is considered rude to reply in russian when older person speaks to you in kazakh. Just a small notice. I assume if you an experienced traveler, you know it is nice to learn couple of local words it’s not gonna hurt. Thanks

I'm from Kazakhstan and I wanted to thank you for showing the real beauty of Kazakhstan. It's actually sad that lots of people know this country only by Borat and other bad stuff. To be honest Kazakhstan is a very beautiful place 🩵 Please, don't judge a country just by one information. There might be hidden more beauty that you don't know yet🌱

Алматы это вторая Швейцария очень красивый город,люблю свой Казахстан ❤❤❤

[@buzzzzombie]

It’s interesting that a tourist’s pronunciation of “Kok Tobe” is way better than local Russian’s 😁 You’re welcome brother, glad you liked the city :)

[@Truth-rm4jn]

Don't forget that there is also at least 2.7 million square kilometers of area in Kazakhstan that you did not visit! Hope you will have opportunity to explore more beautiful places and cities in our country❤You are welcome!

I honestly hate the movie Borat, which made fun of my homeland, it becomes disgusting when bloggers review Kazakhstan adding “borat” to the title, but you showed it better

Подайте кто-нибудь в суд за массовый буллинг детей в школах по всему миру и в других социальных коммьюнити. И не только буллинг детей, а взрослых тоже. Включая еще и факт общего буллинга азиатов в свете евроцентризма, что не оставляет шанс для положительной репутации всех кто путешествует в дргуие страны или живет зарубежом.

[@ilichtournament6431]

Borat - propagandist. Actually, Kazakhstan is the most modern country in the Central Asia.

[@حيدرخليل-ع1ط]

I love you man , from Great Iraq country

The family at the yurt invited Doug to have some food with them, which is the definition of Kazakh hospitality. Even if you are a stranger, you will be treated with respect.

[@sabrinaramelli5013]

I would love to visit and see Kazakhstan. Thank you for sharing!

Kazak people very tolerant to foreigners

[@Adil_Turysbek_TVRC]

I think we prefer words like welcoming and hospitable than tolerant😅

Well there hasn't been any incidents like in other countries that suffer from foreign aggression...

As local person I have to warn extreme hikers or travellers to take precautions in the mountains or steppes. It would be better to plan extreme travelling with someone experienced. All warnings (winds, hard rains etc) to mobiles are made in Kazakh and Russian languages, not in English. Except for possible harsh weather conditions foreign tourists in the steppe or desert often misjudge the huge distances between housings.
