Hi everyone! I'm Daniyar [Da-nee-jar], a political scientist and researcher from Kazakhstan. After living in amazing cities like Vienna, Bishkek, Washington D.C., and Oslo, I'm back in my home country. I work as a Regional Director for the USAID Resilient Communities Activity in Almaty office. I'm passionate about traveling, politics, and education. Feel free to reach out if you need any help or information related to traveling in Kazakhstan or Central Asia (except Turkmenistan).
