A Turkish family has embarked
on a journey from Ankara to Astana in a converted motorhome to attend the fifth
World Nomad Games. Carpenter Burak Duran, clinical psychologist Idil Duran and their
two-year-old son have temporarily left their city life to dedicate themselves
to promoting the heritage of Turkic countries. The family will cover about
5,400 kilometers, traveling first from Türkiye to Georgia, then to Russia, and
through Tatarstan to reach the Kazakh capital.
«We did not miss any news about the World Nomad
Games and immediately decided to attend when we found out it would be held in
Kazakhstan. After
reaching out to the organizers and gathering all the details, we embarked on
our trip. Even if we don’t compete as athletes, we plan to ride horses. This
event holds great significance for our brotherly peoples, so I want to show and
tell others how important it is,» shared Burak Duran.
