Hello! My name is Asel, and I am from one of the top-10 biggest counties in the world located in the heart of Eurasia - Kazakhstan! I am 28 years old young woman working in international business development projects.
Since I was a kid I have always dreamt of traveling and gaining exciting experiences abroad. Unfortunately I did not had much opportunity to do so when I was younger, so I have only recently started the fascinating path of a traveller. I am always happy to meet new people, share stories and exchange language abilities. The world is big and beautiful and I am striving to explore it!
If you come and visit Kazakhstan, and in particular Shymkent, I will be glad to show you around, give you some tips, and tell stories about Kazakhstan and proud people of Kazakhs :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think it's a cool opportunity for people to meet, and extremely helpful for travellers. When I started planning my trip to Barcelona, my friends recommended to chck out CS, which I am really thankful for :)
