Hello dear guests!

I am a native of Almaty, and was born and raised in the very heart of the "city of apples". I spent half of my life in St. Petersburg, absorbing its culture and unique spirit.


Nowadays I am an entrepreneur in the field of creative industries. Together with the team, with interest and inspiration, we conduct exclusive author's walks through the iconic and "secret" places of Alma-Ata (nevertheless, this version of the name is cherished to the heart), delivering a piece of the city's soul and authenticity to our guests. We are waiting for you on our walks, dear friends!


With deep respect,

The inspirer of STEPS" unhurried walks bureau
