  Descripción

  My name is Yeldos and I live in a Kazakh village 50 km east of Almaty. It's located near a small rural town Esik. I live with my wife, Gulnara and our youngest daughter, Raya, who is 15.
  
  Our passion is living in the village and helping our local community develop. For many year we raise chickens and sold eggs. We helped many people we know to launch the egg business to sustain themselves.
  
  Now we have 1 hectare of land on which we built our small house. This summer we put a yurt on our land and hosted different groups of locals who wanted get out of Almaty to experience fresh air and good fellowship.
  
  We constantly need help with different construction tasks.

  Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje

  We hope that while staying with our family, the Workawayer will learn about the life of a simple Kazakh family in the countryside. Living in a yurt, they will be able to experience the culture of nomadic peoples. During the joint work and the common meal, we will tell the Workawayer about our country, about the history and culture of the Kazakhs and other peoples. For example, more than twenty nationalities live together in our village.
  We are a Kazakh family. We speak Russian and Kazakh and some English. We eat and cook Kazakh food and we can teach you to cook it too. You can practice your Russian or Kazakh with us. You can live in the Yurt like a kazakh and meet our friends and neighbors.

  Alojamiento

  We have a yurt that stands in our yard in a secluded and safe place. There is a sofa in the yurt, and if necessary, we can add another one. The yurt also has a table for eating or working, a gas stove, a cupboard for dishes, a refrigerator, lighting, and Wi-Fi. The door can be locked if needed.
  
  ⚠️ PLEASE NOTE: the yurt is not insulated or heated, and Bolek is very cold between OCTOBER and beginning of MARCH Staying in the yurt at this time of year is only suitable if you have proper winter camping gear (sleeping bags, warm clothing, thermal layers) and are prepared to be cold, especially at night.
  
  Men’s bathroom and outdoor shower are available. For women, there is a toilet and shower in the host’s house. Clean bedding is provided and can be changed when necessary.
  
  We are ready to provide three meals a day. If the Workawayer wishes, we can share meals together, or we can provide ingredients if they prefer to cook for themselves.
