				| Our school has one teacher in Astana doing business English classes; she likes it. I'll contact her and see if she can send you some info. It's an interesting city; like Brasilia a purpose built new capital slap bang in the middle of the country and so miles from anywhere (it is a huge country the size of Europe). She has good accomodation. The Kazakhstanis I teach are motivated and interested in other peoples and cultures; they are hospitable and friendly. The new buildings in Astana are quite spectacular;it's not cheap so a good job should include accomodation. |
