A Digital Nomad Guide to Almaty, Kazakhstan

The Fabryk

This is our take on the ultimate Kazakhstan road-trip experience. From Almaty we headed to Kolsai Lakes and ultimately to Charyn Canyon on a 3-ish day road trip. This journey could not possibly be categorized as "easy travel" thanks to language barriers, 💩-ing in holes, and actual fear at times on the road,  but it was freaking memorable. 

Enjoy beautiful, adventure-some people ❤️
