Aizhan, born in 1995, spent her childhood years in the Issyk-Kul region.
She shared her story about how she met her love back in her school years.
“I grew up with my grandparents in the village of Ananyevo until the 11th grade. My husband is also from this village, but we hadn’t seen each other before because he studied at a Turkish lyceum. In 2011, fate brought us together when I was returning home after a school assembly and met him on the road. We became interested in each other and started communicating. We dated until 2015 when he proposed to me. In 2018, we got married, and now we have a son and a daughter,” she said.
Aizhan also talked about her husband's character and how they resolve family conflicts, as well as about their farm.
“My husband is a very calm and patient person; he expresses his feelings through actions rather than words. When disagreements arise, we try not to give in to emotions, we give each other time, and then we discuss everything peacefully,” she noted.
After the wedding, until 2025, the couple lived in the city. With the help of their parents, they were able to buy their own house. However, as the only son in the family, Aizhan's husband suggested moving to the village. Now they live on a farm that occupies 6 hectares of land, where they grow apples, strawberries, currants, cherries, pears, plums, and raspberries, as well as keep livestock. “By working on the farm, we are building a happy family,” she added.
Recalling interesting moments from the time when they first started dating, Aizhan shared:
“When we just started communicating, my friend invited us to the mountains, but I refused because my grandmother wouldn’t let me go. Then he came to my grandmother himself to get permission. He even prepared everything necessary: he brought bedding and marinated meat for shashlik. At that time, he was finishing the 11th grade, and I was in the 9th. In the mountains, he cooked the shashlik himself and arranged a wonderful picnic. I thought, ‘What a wonderful guy,’” she shared.
Aizhan also recalled funny moments from the early years of their life together:
“When I just became a daughter-in-law and cooked manti for guests for the first time, my mother-in-law kneaded the dough too tightly and went to the kitchen, leaving me with it. I struggled for a long time rolling it out until I got tired. When my mother-in-law came back and quickly rolled out the dough, I felt embarrassed, but this incident became a lesson for me and a warm memory of our family life,” she concluded.
