Well, it’s not really a major Eurotrip destination I am afraid, not even after Borat’s promotional movie…. Wink

Have you got any responses back on Khazakstan? Have your friends indicated anything interesting?
How is the weather there at this time of the year?

I almost went to Kaz this year, but wasn’t able to make it. I interviews two people last year who drove through there on the Mongol rally. You can hear that story here: http://www.eurotrip….

I’m doing the Mongol Rally this year going through Kazak, people do it each year.
Place of interest include the Caspian Sea, there is also Baikonur Cosmodrome the worlds first and largest operational space launch facility with a cool sky cafe to overlook the area.

Charyn Canyon – The Grand Canyon’s little brother, but thats right in the Southeast of the country…
