I am now in Almaty.

えぇ～ アルマトゥに到達しております。














On my way here, I often met nice people. I wondered it was just lucky or it's pretty normal in Kazakhstan. I think Kazakh are very very nice people.

ここまで、神がかり的？に良い人と出会うのは偶然？それともカザフ人は良い人が多い？ 多分、カザフ人は良い人が多いんでしょう。







Second day since the border, I was just pedaling without making sure the destination as usual. From 100km of the village where I stayed last night, I reached a village called Kokpel. Of cause this village seemed to be too small to find a guesthouse. However, i found one. I asked local people a place of sleep for tonight then they let me stay their home.. Very nice.

アルマトゥまでの道中、カザフ2日目も特に目的地を決めずに走って、ダスカラスから100キロくらい。コクペルという集落に到着。宿なんてあるわけもないが、第一村人に話しかけ、宿を探してるのをアピールする。するとまたしても「泊まっていきなよ」って。










How nice Kazakh are. This family had 5kids. I felt a bit sorry for that they gave me space for me, so I gave them a few appreciation.

簡単すぎる。この御宅には5人も子供がいて、さすがに申し訳ないんで多少のお礼をさせて頂きました。







This village is in middle of nowhere. Only you can see was grassland and mountains which I thought very beautiful. They had a water from mountain. This water was very cold and nice.

草原の中にあるこの集落。正に周りには何にもない。ただ、山からの湧き水を引いてあって、使い放題飲み放題。この水が旨かった！





For next day, I had been encountering nice people.
The neighbor of where I stayed invited me a breakfast so I had some bread and milk tea with them. A car driver gave me a big bread. A truck driver treated me a dinner.....

翌日も良い人達との出会い続き。朝はコクペルのカフェで朝ご飯のパンとチャイをご馳走になり、走行途中で会ったおばちゃんからはデッカイパンを頂き。夕時にはウイグル人のトラックドライバーと出会い、夕飯をご馳走になってしまった。






I love Kazakhstan!!!!!!

カザフスタン大好きだーー！
