My Experience

My family deals with bees for more than 25 years already. From very early childhood I saw bees and was amazed by them. I began to work with my father at age of 6, since then i never stopped visiting the hives. We are nomads. We do not just stay in one place and collect honey. Over one season we can travel to 5-6 different places to allocate our hives there. These trips brings a lot of fun and sad stories related to Kyrgyz traditions, culture, people, places and i am eager to tell them to you.

My Philosophy

I strongly believe in curiosity. Curious people learn fast and use anything they learn to their advantage! There are no stupid people, it is just about wonders that some do not see and they get used to it. I strongly believe that each subject no matter if it is music, architecture, design or language can change lives, so, stay hungry and curious to live your full potential.
