1 People still play traditional sports in Kazakhstan.

2 Baiga is usually for young boys.
3 Alaman baiga races are shorter than ordinary baiga races.
4 In kumis alu, players have to throw coins to each other.
5 There are two players in a game of kyz kuu.
6 People play baiga, kumis alu and kyz kuu to practice their
horse riding skills.

There are many traditional sports with horses in Kazakhstan. Some are
hundreds of years old and they are still popular today.
Baiga is a horse race. Usually, boys between seven and fourteen years old
take part. Baiga races cover different distances, starting at just a few
kilometres. Alaman baiga races can be up to 100 kilometres long and are very tiring!
Kumis alu is a race to pick up the most coins from the ground – except all the
competitors are on horses and they can't get off or even slow down! They have to lean
down from the saddle and pick up the coins as they ride by. The winner is the person
with the most coins.
Kyz kuu is like the playground game 'kiss chase' – on horses! A man and a woman
ride their horses towards a finishing line. If the man wins, he can kiss the woman.
However, if the woman wins, she chases the man back to the start of the race and, if she
gets close enough, she can even hit him! This is a very popular event with locals and
tourists.
Long ago, Kazakh people played these sports to help them practise horse riding, an
important skill out on the steppe. These days, sports like baiga, kumis alu and kyz kuu
are just for fun, but they also remind the Kazakh people of their proud history.

Flying High Life in the Sky
Hello and welcome to my blog! I'm Zarina and I'm a flight attendant. I'm from Kazakhstan,
but I fly all over the world. I love travelling!

Dress to Impress
Today's post is all about uniforms. You've probably noticed, at the airport, that all the flight attendants
look very glamorous. It's part of the job, but it's not easy – especially after an eleven-hour flight! We
have to make sure our hair is neat and tidy and, for women, that our make-up is fresh and bright. But
the biggest part of our appearance is our uniform.
Every airline has got a different uniform. Usually, male flight attendants wear a suit and tie and females
like me wear a skirt and shirt. However, sometimes we wear a dress or shirt and trousers. We often
have hats and scarves, too. It may surprise you, but a lot of flight attendant uniforms are
designed by famous fashion designers, which is why they look so stylish!
My uniform is nothing special – just a white shirt, blue skirt and jacket and a pink
scarf. I love it! The material is soft and strong, and I never have to think about what
to wear to work. Some airlines have uniforms that are based on the culture of their
country. For example, the flight attendants at Thai Airways wear traditional Thai
costumes. They look like long silk dresses, and all the women have a purple
flower on their shoulder. They look beautiful!
Our uniforms are fashionable and comfortable but most of all they show
everyone we see which airline we work for. That's why we always have to
look our best – we're like walking adverts!
What do you think about my uniform? Leave your comments below.
