The weather this week was a bit confusing. It was super sunny earlier in the week, so I stopped wearing my winter coat. Then it rained and snowed in the same day. The weather here reminds me a lot of the weather in Michigan.
This week I saw my host cats of course, but I was also able to see a few dogs running around! Someone was walking their corgi near my house and I got to pet it, which was awesome.
This week the air in Almaty started to clear up a bit and I was able to get a great view of the mountains from the city!
Otherwise, I did not have a ton of opportunities to engage with nature this week, but I am hoping to go hiking next weekend!
