One thing I love about having an online business is getting to meet people from all over the world. Sometimes I get orders from countries I didn’t even know existed!

The other day I received an order from “Kasakhstan”. For those of you who didn’t know Kasakstan was a real country I’m letting you know it actually is, and it’s situated between Russia and China

If you have seen the movie Borat then you will be familiar with Kasakhstan.

The gentleman named Gulnar who placed the order was kind enough to fill me in a little bit about Kasakhstan. He told me that it is one of the richest countries in the world for  both variety and quantity of its minerals, especally its oil.

He said Kasakhstan is very multinational. They can speak russian and kazakh languages.

As for the movie “Borat”  he claims to have never seen it.  But he said his government has taken it as an insult to kazakh people. Anyway he said “thanks to this movie more people in the world have learned about Kazakhstan.”

So there is a little bit of trivia for those of you who are interested learning about other countries and their people as I am.

And if you ever visit Kasakhstan keep an eye out for our friend Gulnar the tattooist!
