What is life like as an expat in your area?
When we asked people living abroad what life is like in their areas and how people spend their time, they said...
"Living in Kazakhstan as an expat or digital nomad can be an exciting and rewarding experience. The country offers a unique blend of modern and traditional culture, with a wide range of activities and attractions to explore. Expats and digital nomads can enjoy a variety of outdoor activities, from skiing and snowboarding in the winter to hiking and camping in the summer. The country also offers a wide range of cultural experiences, from traditional Kazakh music and dance to modern art galleries and museums. The cost of living in Kazakhstan is relatively low, making it an attractive destination for expats and digital nomads. The country also offers excellent healthcare and education facilities, making it a great place to live and work," remarked another expat who made the move to Kazakhstan.
"I belong to the marries group and really don't know any single people here so I can't judge. The married lot socialise with each other, dinner's parties, trips to the mountains and places of interest. There always seems plenty going on. Many of the employed people spend a lot of time travelling within the country, its 2000KM to the capital Astana from Almaty and 3,000 to the Caspian. So they tend to want quiet weekends," explained one expat living in Almaty, Kazakhstan.
