First impressions of KAZAKHSTAN : Earthquake, Soviet sauna and sincere talks with locals

Let's start a big journey through the Post-Soviet space. Almaty is a former capital of the Kazakh Soviet Socialist Republic. Almaty city is a current financial, scientific, cultural, historical and industrial center of the country with nearly 2 million inhabitants, it is also Kazakhstan’s largest city and the one most visited by tourists. Almaty is located in a seismically active zone, and I just arrived there and my adventures started right away...
