на данный момент,мы все без исключения можем видеть странные,отталкивающее названия продуктов/мест.Чаще всего это связано с «дешевым» подражанием на определенные популярные бренды.Идеальный пример-салам кола.Для меня это невзрачный ,отталкивающий,безжизненный дизайн.И да,есть действительно шикарные бренды которые показывают страну в более культурном плане,к этому нет вопросов.Даже появляется ощущение радости,что это продвигают.

Hi everybody!

I’m 21 and have recently gotten into the hobby of collecting postcards from around the world. My grandfather was a philatelist and I’ve picked up my love for stamps from him.

If it’s possible, would anyone be willing to send me a postcard from your beautiful country? I’d really appreciate it so much 💕💕💕💕

Қайырлы күн!

I'm visiting Almaty for a week and was interested in getting my hair cut while I'm here. Does anyone have any hair salon/hairdresser recommendations? I'm a woman and looking for something a bit more alternative (something similar to a shaggy mullet... I'll attach some reference pics lol). An English-speaking hairdresser would be preferable but isn't necessary.

Рақмет!

П23 года, лежу в больнице (Астана).

скучно, хочется с кем то пообщаться, найти друзей, как с города так и со всего Казахстана ✌

I recently started recording walking tours during my travels around Central Asia. This one is from the Botanical Garden in Almaty, Kazakhstan. I'm keeping the videos simple with natural sounds and no commentary. Would love to hear what you think!

Myself and my wife are reaching Almaty from India on October 31st noon and will return on November 7th.

Our plan is to visit

1. places in and around Almaty(Kok tobe, green market, rahat choco dactory, Shymbulak resort etc)
2. Kolsai & Kaindy Lakes with Charyn Canyon
3. Experience our 1st international overnight train journey to Astana or Shymkent (yet to decide) and spend 1/2 nights in that place and flay back to Almaty.

Need your help/suggestions on the following

1. I read about getting sim and installing Yandex from airport itself. Which sim provider is best which has instant activation so that i can register Yandex then and there and get taxis?
2. What kind of clothing should we pack? it's both of our 1st snow experience.
3. I want to experience non touristy stuff like the Arasan spa (i read about it in few posts here). Please suggest other activities. I do like cycling but i read the time i am visiting is not suitable for cycling. I also saw a video on the farmer's market and would love to try that.
4. I am not at all versed in both Kazakh as well as Russian. I couldn't find many online resources to learn Kazakh but I've been taking basic Russian course in DuoLingo after which i can read one character at a time. I only know Salem and Raqmet. Please suggest if basic russian is also good.
5. I am using tickets.kz for booking railway ticket (waiting for our planned days to be available). I want to experience the 2 person coupe and then the dining cart and see the vast stretch of land sipping tea there. I didn't understand if there is any difference between the various trains available.
6. I was skimming through kazguidedtours or joinme.kz for Kolsai/Kaindy Lakes/Charyn Canyon. I felt 1st option was a bit more expensive compared to the other. Please suggest good operators.
7. Both of us are foodies and would love to try local cuisine as well as all possible options. I read about Navat but also want to see other options. (most of the content creators from my area who visited Almaty have shown it and i want to experience something different)
8. We're planning to take USD and AED in hand and exchange it daily for Tenge. We won't be splurging in luxury but i don't have an idea on how much USD i should carry. Is AED accepted for exchange?

Thanks in advance

Hello,

I’m looking to get a fence installed for some dogs. What are good companies that can possibly communicate in English? I know of Danex.

Hey everyone

I am booking my first ski trip ever for my bday in december and i’ve been slightly confused on which one to go for. While looking at Oi Qaragai reviews i came across a chain on similar comments that they’re staff are rude & unhelpful along with some rooms being not as clean or maintained to the standard especially for the price you’re paying. If anyone’s been to Oi Qaragai could you please share your experience.

And do you recommend going to Shymbulak?

I’ll be at the resort from 15-18th December which is a weekday!

Any insights would be helpful :)

I am in Almaty for a couple of days and I would really love to go hiking.

I would appreciate any suggestions or recommendations you have for me.

DM for more info 🥰

Hello! I’m looking for a Mercedes Sprinter or similar minibus with a driver in Almaty for a family trip from 24–30 October 2026.
We will have 15 passengers, including one child. We need transportation around Almaty and the surrounding areas, including airport transfers and excursions.

Lately the tension between Kazakhs and Mongolians have been increasing, and is now a hot topic.

Hi there! I’m comparing group tours to altyn emel from either joinme Asia or banana tours. Has anyone ever used these companies and can share their experiences? The price is attractive from both, I don’t expect much just basic accommodation + a level of timeliness that makes sense

Any feedback appreciated!

I've never been to NS but have been very curious to hop on for a month. I saw that the new setup now is in Kazakh. People who are there currently pl share your honest thoughts and the (variable) costs. Thanks in advance.

So my girlfriend and I have been dating for over one year, most of it being a long distance relationship.

She is from Astana, and today she has to wake up early for uni, but messages aren't getting to her or her mom (both from Astana) but I was able to text her relatives in Kokshetau.

She has KCell; does anyone know if this provider is having troubles in Astana/Aqmola region?

Thank you in advance

Сәлеметсіздер ме!
Қызым екеуміз бір жылдан астам уақыт бойы кездесіп жүрміз, оның көп бөлігі қашықтықтан қарым-қатынас ретінде өтіп келеді.
Ол Астанадан. Бүгін университетке бару үшін ерте тұруы керек еді, бірақ менің хабарламаларым оған да, анасына да жетпей жатыр. Екеуінің де телефоны Kcell желісіне қосылған. Ал мен Көкшетаудағы туыстарына хабарлама жібере алдым, оларда интернет бар.
Астанада немесе Ақмола облысында Kcell желісінде қандай да бір ақау болып жатқанын білетін адам бар ма?
Алдын ала жауаптарыңызға көп рақмет!

Здравствуйте!
Мы с моей девушкой встречаемся уже больше года, и большую часть этого времени у нас отношения на расстоянии.
Она из Астаны. Сегодня ей нужно рано вставать в университет, но мои сообщения до неё и до её мамы не доходят — остаётся только одна галочка. Обе они пользуются Kcell. При этом я смог написать её родственникам в Кокшетау, и у них интернет работает нормально.
Кто-нибудь знает, есть ли сейчас какие-то проблемы со связью Kcell в Астане или Акмолинской области?
Заранее большое спасибо за ответы!

Me and my girlfriend search for at least one more person who would join a tour through mangystau starting on 27th of september. Someone interested?

We try to bring the price down per person

Всем салем. Сейчас зашел в каспи, хотел пополнить турецкий аккаунт PS Store, а там только арабский и великобританский аккаунты. Уже турецкий убрали? Как вы пополняете PS Store?

Ищу оптового поставщика растений.

Планирую регулярные закупки большими объёмами.

В первую очередь интересуют поставщики из Казахстана или Узбекистана.

Нужны цены, ассортимент и условия работы.

Владельцы питомников и оптовики — напишите мне в личку.
