The 30 Second Introduction

Kazakhstan is a rapidly developing ex-soviet nation with an oil economy. That in itself would fascinate many people… but beyond the surface Kazakhstan is a multiethnic nation whose people are generally laid back and very hospitable. It is a nation about which very few people know anything… Oh yes, there are the Borat mumblers out there… but that just shows how much most people don’t know

So here are 5 reasons why you should come and see this country:

1. The friendly and hospitable culture of the Kazakh people.

2. Beshbamak, Manty, and Shashlyk (delicious foods).

3. A nation of exciting change and rapid development.

4. The many opportunities for professional development.

5. To be alive means to experience, to learn, to grow… so chose to be alive.
