Subsequently, Razors Were Involved

Category: Kazakhstan,PersonalChrisM @ 1:30 am

This is the intro to the weekly vlog series from Jason/Lucky, down in Almaty. Also a short interview with one of the entrants to this year’s Mongol Rally. The same rally that the famous ‘Tupac In Kazakhstan’ video came from. Hmm, I thought I had posted that video already. Can’t seem to find it in my archives anywhere. More than likely it is hiding in one of the draft posts for this blog, or a series of bookmarked tabs in Firefox. I’ve got Kazakh related news articles from early 2008 in my Bookmarks menu. Not a lot of point in posting about most of those, I guess.
So, why haven’t I embedded Lucky’s video in this post? Because I want you to explore his YouTube channel for yourself. Once you’re knocked over by his style and content, leave a comment on a video or two, and consider subscribing 🙂

Russian And Kazakh Schools In Kazakhstan

Category: Kazakhstan,VideosChrisM @ 1:19 am

Jason’s PC is apparently broken right now, so I doubt we’ll see any new YouTube videos for a while. I have been catching up with his back catalogue of films, and drafting posts on those I though people who hadn’t been to Kazakhstan, or even some locals, might find interesting.
This one is on Russian vs. Kazakh schools, here in Kazakhstan. If you have no interest in Central Asia or children, you can probably skip this one. That said, if those conditions apply to you, I’d probably wonder why you’re reading this site in the first place 🙂
