When we went camping up in the mountains of Kazakhstan with the youth 

Guys, they have marshmallows in Kazakhstan but they don’t make s’mores. It still reminded me of home.

The next day we went hiking up to the waterfall. It was beautiful 

Got to spend most of my hike hearing about the wedding Megan is planning:)

Hiking down from the waterfall with my friend and her daughter:)

We did English Club every day, Monday though Friday for the youth

We headed up to Almaty Lake but the car could not make it up. So we started    hitch hiking:) 

We went up to Almaty Lake, it was so beautiful!

These are our amazing friends that took us up to Almaty lake on their day off:)

Teaching English took me back to teaching my after school program

Rode a bike though the city with the youth. Also when you go bike riding with Kailey you must do tandem bike riding.

We got to go bowling with our friends, it was so much fun! Miss them 

When Kailey and I showed up to church matching

When its Sunday and you look the nicest you have in months you have to take a picture. 

We got to watch these adorable kids for a day

Love these guys, it was so much fun teaching them English!!

These are our friends from Kazakhstan it was amazing to come along side of what they are doing.

I loved hanging out with this girl!!

At Almaty Lake 

Saying goodbye to our friends

Then we had a week of travel; 3 days on a bus to the Caspian sea where we took a ferry for 4 days across to Azerbaijan for debrief.
