One of the many interesting things about Almaty is
its nature. I kid you not, here we have it all: forests,
steppes, mountains, lakes, rivers, and even our
very own Canyon.
And just a quick history fact. “Almaty”,
or “Alma - Ata” means “Grandfather of
Apples”. I think you know where this is going.
That’s right – the apple tree originated in
Almaty mountains in 8000 B.C.!

11. Kazakhstan is great country!
I have never met such a lot free-minded people like
there. Everyone is nice, smiling all the time and
everyone has a lot of time for everything.
People there lives in “reggae tempo“ of life. When you
have meeting somewhere at 5 p.m. everyone is there at
6.30 p.m. and no one is angry because of beeing late.
This was my first experience with Asia country and I
was absolutely impressed when I came there. All
people were so nice, friendly and helpful and there
was no stress.
By the way girls in this country are wonderful=)
Everyone is nice, smillinga ll thetime and
everyonehasa lotof timefor everything.

12. When I arrived to Almaty, the first question tha
popped into my head was “Am I still in Portugal?
mean, aside from the huge mountains and the
architectural differences in some buildings, Alm
is very similar to my country, especially in the
cultural aspects. Some examples of the similarit
between Portugal and Kazakhstan are the fact th
Kazakh people also love meat, also listen to th
song “Ai se eu te pego” of Michel Teló (this was
huge surprise for me, especially because this son
sung in Portuguese language), and also are fans
football (when I tell people I’m Portuguese, th
most common response is “Cristiano Ronaldo”
I’ll never forget happened when two of our
students decided to learn by themselves how t
greet the interns in their own languages
(Portuguese, Czech and Slovak); it was a huge
surprise when they asked me “Como tem
passado?” (How have you been?).
“All the different experiences I’ve been living
during the last month lead me to the conclusionthat
Kazakhstan is a countryof contrasts”.

13. I spent 6 amazing weeks in Kazakhstan. The people and the culture were incredible. Working with Kazakh
children was joyable ,funny and unforgettable. They have treated me as a aunty or sometimes as a mother.
I fought with my weaknesses, started new friendships I even was crying when my children went home(and I
didn’t know that I’m so sensitive) I saw that I can do a lot of things which I didn’t even dreamed of. People
working on this project were very helpful , nice and funny ,really good team.
To sum up I just want to say that this vacation was the best in my life and I hope I will have the chance to
come back to Kazakhstan and to meet with all the people.
We all were like a HUGE
family!
