Since childhood, I had a dream to study in Turkey, as I have always been interested in culture, nature, traditions of Turkey. I entered the magistracy at the Kazakh National University named after al-Farabi, thanks to academic mobility, I was able to fulfill my dream. At the moment I am studying in Ankara, Haci Bayram Veli University, abbreviated as AHBV - a state university in Turkey, which was formed on May 18, 2018, by separation from Gazi University.

The atmosphere on campus is reminiscent of American universities. Students are open and inquisitive; they are responsible for their studies and strive for academic knowledge. In addition, students are involved in student organizations ranging from chess to rugby club and skating. It is perfectly normal to have a table set for you in class with food, tea, and Turkish coffee.

At the university, I acquired new knowledge, good colleagues, and friends. The teachers are professional, knowledgeable, and very funny. Classes are held in a pleasant atmosphere, everyone is actively involved in the process of the lesson, sharing their knowledge and thoughts. Studying in Ankara taught me to be more open not only to knowledge, but also to new discoveries, new areas. I am grateful to my university and teachers for this opportunity.
