NOMADS IN PARIS
Ahead of the Olympic Games, a car from Kazakhstan entered the capital of France, Paris, yesterday morning. It is a unique car branded in the style of the 5th World Nomad Games. It is driven by a Kazakh public figure, traveler Yerik Shynybekov - Brand Ambassador of the 5th World Nomad Games, which will be held in September this year in Astana.
Nomad Erik Shynybekov left the city of Atyrau, traveled through the Russian Federation, Georgia, Turkey, Greece, Italy, Germany and arrived in Paris just in time for the opening of the Olympic Games to support the Kazakh Olympians. He said that he feels like a real sports fan, and in order to popularize the 5th World Nomad Games, as part of this mission, he decorated his car in the style of the Nomad Games. On the back door of the car is a depiction of a berkutchi releasing a golden eagle against the backdrop of the steppe, as a symbol of the imminent launch of the WNG with the date: September 8-13, the website address is wng.kz. The WNG logos are emblazoned on both sides of the jeep.
“In my opinion, the event organized by Yerik more accurately than ever describes his essence as a nomad. And the coverage of the 5th World Nomad Games is carried out not only by the organizers, authorities, and other organizations, but also by ordinary citizens for whom the image of Kazakhstan is not just words.
Thanks to fans like ours, we are pleased to have the opportunity to present the world culture of nomads in Paris, one of the world's largest centers of sports and culture. This is a great opportunity to tell the world about our heritage and invite everyone to the 5th World Nomad Games,” said Serik Buksikov, Marketing Director of the Games Directorate.
Residents and guests of Paris had the opportunity not only to see the car, but also to learn more about the future games, get acquainted with the history and traditions of nomadic peoples.
In turn, the WNG Organizing Committee sincerely wished success to the Kazakhstan team at the Olympic Games in Paris and expressed confidence that Kazakhstani athletes will worthily defend the honor of the country.
