Travel as the meaning of life

Travel as a Meaning of Life 1. Introduction In the age of digital technology, we have the opportunity to find anything we can think of. Thanks to the internet, we can also travel abroad and discover new horizons. There is so much information online about student exchanges and working abroad. The goal of student exchange programs is cultural exchange. And, of course, those who participate in such programs gain invaluable experience. In the first months of this year (2022), I was looking for programs where I could go abroad for the summer and work at the same time. Thus, I found so many programs with the opportunity to go to countries in Europe, America, New Zealand, Turkey, and more! My name is Alisher, and I am a participant in the Work and Travel 2023 program. Since I was finishing my second year of university in May, I chose seasonal work in Bulgaria for the 3 summer months. Enjoy reading, everyone. Let's get started! 2. My First Trip. I went abroad for the first time. Starting my journey on June 23rd from the city of Khromtau, I traveled by train to Astana for a day. Upon arriving in the capital, I had to get to the hostel. There, for the first time, I met people from other countries. I spoke with one of them in English in person, which was a great experience for me. I spent the rest of the day walking around the city until late at night. The next day, I went to the airport well before my flight time (it was my first time flying on a plane). After sorting everything out, I was ready to depart. But the plane didn't take off due to technical issues. I found people who were flying to Bulgaria to work just like me, and we all started thinking about what to do next. Eventually, after a few hours, our tickets were rebooked, and we were supposed to fly out in 2 days. But the question of where to sleep remained open. We gathered together and went to ask this question to the company through which we were supposed to fly. After talking to them, they offered us a 3-star hotel on the right bank of Astana with 3 meals a day for two days. The next day, we went for a walk around the city. Getting to know our new acquaintances better, we had a great time in the capital. After 2 days, we finally flew out. I don't know how flights work, but first, we flew from Astana to Shymkent and from there to Istanbul, one of the largest cities in Turkey. Upon arriving in Turkey, I felt a bit unwell. Because it was my first time flying, I had ear pain. At the airport, the most difficult part at that moment began. Some of us (including me) went to look for a bus to the bus station (Bayrampasa). As soon as we finally found it, we went back to tell the others. But something went wrong. We couldn't get in because they wouldn't let us through. The person who wouldn't let us in didn't even listen to us, and since we didn't have a connection, we couldn't call and tell them the whole situation. A couple of hours later, they came out themselves, and we finally moved on. We arrived at the bus station late at night. Some of us (especially me) managed to sleep for 2-3 hours on the seats before our departure. By the way, my ear pain was still bothering me :( At 9 a.m., we successfully boarded the bus and headed towards Bulgaria. During the 10 hours on the road, I tried not to fall asleep and to look at the cities, villages, and nature. I tried not to fall asleep until the moment we were supposed to leave Istanbul, but I couldn't 😐, the city is too big, and I fell asleep without waiting for that moment. When I woke up, I saw so many villages where things were very bad; the locals lived in very poor conditions, which was a shock to me. Entering Bulgaria after checking documents, I immediately noticed that the local nature is very beautiful and mesmerizing. Forests, hills, and mountains. I also noticed many buildings from the USSR era. I also want to add a couple of words about the bus we were traveling in. Despite the fact that we were on the road for a long 10 hours,

Back to the Future

Hello everyone! My name is Araylym. I am a student from Kazakhstan at Suleyman Demirel University and a future diplomat. I have been studying languages since childhood and can proudly speak about my success in mastering English, Turkish, and Korean. I started with languages because one of the important goals of my life is to travel the world, and languages are the first steps toward my dream. 20-30 years ago, traveling and working abroad was difficult, especially for students. But now it has become a relevant aspect of our lives. Various organizations and centers have become a buffer between students and other countries. And in my opinion, the leader today is the International Exchange Center. For 20 years, the International Exchange Center has been brilliantly coping with the task of implementing student exchanges. Students now have the opportunity not only to travel but also to earn money while practicing languages and exchanging culture. I have not been abroad yet, and now that I am 100% ready for such changes in my life, I want to fulfill my dream. And this competition stimulates me even more and gives a huge chance. Knowing how the Center has worked to this day, I want to make predictions about how the Center will work in 20 years. So, IEC-2029: - IEC is a global network of international exchange centers. You can find an IEC in every corner of the globe. There are already 105 IECs around the world. In Kazakhstan, there are already 7 centers: Astana, Almaty, Shymkent, Atyrau, Karaganda, Semey, and Kyzylorda. - The center provides an opportunity not only for the younger generation but also for the older generation to gain international communication and work experience. You can participate in the program if you are 18-40 years old. If you have difficulties with languages, professional specialists at the center will prepare you in a short period using accelerated methods. - All IEC program participants receive an "IEC-Visa": with one visa to the USA, you can freely cross the borders of countries participating in the IEC agreement. How far has globalization come? - The list of countries you can go to has significantly increased - UK, Australia, Canada, South America, European countries, China, Japan, India, and others. Now Kazakhstan also welcomes foreign job seekers and travelers into its warm embrace. Kazakhstan is among the 50 developed countries of the world. And it is interesting for foreigners to explore what our country represents. - IEC offers hot vacancies online. Participants choose the vacancy they like. - IEC provides each participant with a so-called "IEC with me" sensor. This sensor is made in the form of a watch. In case of questions or difficulties, the participant gives a "Domestic IEC" signal. And "Domestic IEC" instantly contacts "Host IEC" and the participant's problem is solved promptly. - IEC is now also the largest employment agency. If you are educated, perfect in language, and competent, then IEC will place you in the best international companies in any industry. - The IEC network works systematically and is constantly improving. An annual meeting of representatives of all centers is held, and the work of the centers is analyzed. - IEC is engaged in charity. 10 million dollars are allocated annually for charity. This speaks to the international prestige and good intentions of the IEC. This is our "IEC-2029". IEC does not stop at what has been achieved but goes higher and higher. Good luck and success to you, IEC!!!

Assel Zholdasbek on Instagram: "Our route:🚴🏻‍♀️ Station🚉 Harlem -125 St (NY) Marcus Garvey Park Columbia University Central Park Apple Store 5th Avenue Pier 84 Hudson River Park Times Square Grand Central 🚉 ——— I've dreamed of cycling through New York for a long time😻 a little bit about something: The most amazing thing is that we started our day at Columbia University and finished at Times Square, where we met a master's student from the SAME university. And then we found out that he graduated from the SAME university where I am currently studying - MNU/KAZGUU. (He was the first Kazakh I've met in the USA in the three months I've been here😹) On the way home on the train, I remembered another student whom my friends and I met on the "Pirates of the Baltic Sea" cruise. He is doing his second master's degree in Finland. In Boston, there are also two Kazakh girls from NIS Shymkent, both named Assel: one graduated from Yale University and now works at Harvard, the other just started her master's degree there. ——— Such stories inspire me incredibly. You hear their stories, and the thought immediately pops into your head: "Wait, was that even possible?" It's interesting that these people don't even suspect it) Thank you, you are the best!!!

About travel and the story of my life

Travel and its role in my life. Travel, in the literal sense, is a trip or moving on foot through distant countries and regions. Nowadays, it has become an important part of modern life for everyone. After all, thanks to travel, a completely different, unexplored world opens up to us, one we don't even think about in everyday life. We have the opportunity to visit the natural beauties of the world, discover other ways of life, and meet interesting people. In short, travel is the key to understanding other cultures and a wonderful opportunity to learn more about the world we live in. In my life, travel plays a special role. Only thanks to traveling and living abroad was I able to become the person I am today. Qualities such as cheerfulness, openness, confidence, and global awareness have developed in me; my psychological state and views on the world have also changed. Travel significantly changes a person's life. This essay is intended to mention my personal experience of traveling and living abroad, as well as to tell why I decided to participate in the program. My first travels Since childhood, my mother raised me alone. She tried to give me everything possible, including travel. My first travels were within Kazakhstan. My mother and I often traveled to various cities, such as Kokshetau, Almaty, and Shymkent. At that time, I was a one-year-old child, and imagine, a young girl traveling with an infant to different cities, and alone at that—I don't think everyone would dare to do such a thing. By the time I reached my teenage years, our travels were becoming further and longer. At 11, my first trip abroad took place, and my first country was the United Arab Emirates, as a result of my mother's hard work. Later, the number of countries increased slightly, and at the moment I have visited 3 countries, two of them several times. After these travels, I realized how important it is to travel, even if only to small towns. Already as a teenager who had just finished school, I was able to enter the university of my dreams, which I had planned to enter and had been preparing for throughout the 11th grade. It was Nazarbayev University. Throughout the 11th grade, I worked hard and attended various courses just to get my cherished acceptance letter. I succeeded; I was able to achieve my goal, but fate had other plans for me. In the middle of summer, I received another acceptance letter, but to a different university in a different country, which I had completely forgotten I had applied to. Upon receiving the letter, I was very surprised, because I had not planned to enter that country at all, and here I had a letter from there. That country was Turkey. I was immensely happy, as this grant covered all expenses, even the ticket there, but realizing the seriousness of the situation, I was overcome by the fear of making the wrong choice. After all, my future life depended on it. 3 months of deliberation ended with me having to leave my dream of studying at NU and choosing Turkey on the advice of my relatives. By choosing Turkey, I had to leave my mother, all my relatives and loved ones in Kazakhstan, and fly to a country that was already familiar but little explored. Life in Turkey Life in a foreign country can be an exciting but also a frightening experience. At the time of my departure for studies in Turkey, I was only 17 years old; I did not yet realize what awaited me ahead. At the airport, before boarding, I was joyful; I already felt like an adult, there wasn't even a drop of sadness. But upon arrival, I realized how small and insignificant I still was in such a large metropolis as Ankara. I knew neither the language nor their culture. When checking into the dormitory, it was very difficult to process all the documents, because the administrators did not know English, and I did not know Turkish. With great difficulty, with translators and the help of girls who knew the language, we managed to fill out all the documents. Right then and th
