Hi, guys! I arrived in Kazakhstan a few weeks ago, and I'm having a fantastic time. This country has got everything!
Astana, my first stop, is a brand new city with shopping centres, wide roads and stunning buildings of all shapes
and sizes - no wonder people call it "The City of the Future"! But a week of city life was enough for me and then it
was time to get back in touch with nature. And let me tell you, there is plenty of that here: Kazakhstan has got
some of the most impressive scenery you can find.
After a series of long bus rides across the steppe, including spending a few nights with a host family in a yurt, I'm
finally in the Tian Shan Mountains. Right now, I'm taking a break and just sitting in the spring sunshine, enjoying
the view. Tomorrow, I'm hiring a guide and we're climbing Gora Alagordy - it's 4,622 metres above sea level and
you can see China from the top. I can't wait - it's going to be a great adventure.
