Kasun, a financial expert from Canada with extensive experience in international corporations, has been working in Atyrau for the fifth year. Holding a responsible position in the offshore oil and gas development project in Kazakhstan (North Caspian Project), he, along with other expats, lives in a hotel on the embankment of the Zhaiyk (Ural) River. By the way, this embankment was landscaped as a gift to the residents by the Kazakh company which he works for.
In his free time, Kasun likes to do morning and evening runs or just walk along the embankment. In addition, he is a fan of sports cycling and playing billiards. As a responsible representative of the international community, he is committed to learning languages, so he attends language lessons to communicate with Kazakh colleagues and friends.
