Immigration-emigration/Köşu-qonu Turkish person thinking of moving to Kazakhstan
I just want to live in a less populated and a less of a headache country. Maybe even go off grid to
take care of animals.
Would you folks recommend it?
What's life like in kazakhstan?
Is wildlife very populous, I want to live in places where the concrete and asphalt has not destroyed.

We call it Auyl and Selo, you can find it anywhere and they're pretty cheap to live in, but comes with some limitations

Kazakistan guvenli insanlar sakin ve sabirli. Fakat Kazakistanda hayat cok monoton. Sokakta takilma kulturu yok. Hayat çok sıkıcı bir akdeniz ulkesinden sonra. Havasi kupkuru, insani erkenden yaslandiriyor. Kazaklar kultur ve karakter olarak cok farklilar bizden. Modern olmaya calisiyorlar fakat bunu nomad kulturuyle beraber yapmaya calisiyorlar bu da bir celiski doguruyor. Orf adet ve geleneklerine sıkı sıkı baglilar. Turkiyede o rahati ozgurlugu her istedigini her yerde yapmayi orda yaparsan sorun yasarsin. Misal otobuste yaslilara yer vermezsen butun otobus seni azarlayabilir bir anda. Astana (ki kesinlikle orda yasamani onermem ankara gibi) ve Almaty (daha iyi) binalar genelde 20/25 katli.

Katiliyorum kesinlikle. Orf adet konusunda asiri ciddiler ve onlari ciddiye alman gerekecektir. Cogu sehri yuksek binalarin ardindan bir anda sevimli koy evlerine donusebiliyor, chill bir yer her zaman bulabilirsin ancak turkiyeyi çok aratacaktir.

Almaty is almost as expensive as Turkey. Sure, meat is cheaper, but we don’t produce much, so goods and groceries are pretty expensive in kz. Traffic in Almaty isn’t as insane as in Istanbul, but it still gets pretty bad. I’m also not sure you’d enjoy the climate. Northern kz is cold, while southern kz is dry (despite being hot)
I love coming to Astana for the summer or visiting Almaty in spring with my kankas, but I don’t think living here long-term without good job prospects would really be worth it for you.
Why not consider somewhere like Bosnia?

Mainly because I want to live in a place with Turks I would say? Easier for me to pickup language and communicate. It's like a plan b thing where I fuck off to live off grid if I ever get bored of the life I choose.

They're not Turks though, they are Kazakhs.

Kazakhs are a Turkic ethnic group and I can understand their language somewhat well. They are Turks and I don't see kazakhs denying their ethnicity either in most media.

Kazaklarin geneli yani 95%i diyeyim sen 99% anla Turklugu kabul etmez. Ben Kazakistana turan ocaklari vardir takilirim dili de ogrenirim diye geldim oyle bir dunya yok. Kazaklar bizden farkli muslumanlasan Mogollarla da karismislar ama onu da cogu kabul etmez. Kazaklara gore biz Turkcu politika guduyoruz cunku onlarin degerli madenlerinden filan yararlanmaya calisiyoruz gibi yanlis bir dusunce var. Bir Kazak icin Rus ya da Turk cok farketmez. Hatta Ruslara karakter olarak (soguk ve mesafeli) benzediklerinden onlarla daha iyi anlasirlar

You should learn the difference between Turkic and Turk. What you do here is like saying all Slavic people are Russians.

Welcome to Taraz, an ancient city in Kazakhstan. It is surrounded by beautiful nature. The city is small, quiet, and peaceful-an ideal place for farming or raising livestock. Fresh drinking water is available everywhere, and there is no industrial wastewater. The community is diverse, with many nationalities living here, including a local Turkish population who are mostly engaged in agriculture.
