A traveler from Armenia Arthur Oganyan arrived in Atyrau on a bicycle. The guest was greeted by the chairman and members of the “Tavros” ethno-cultural association, representatives of KSU "Public contracts" and the media.

He came with his friend Graf. This is the name of the shepherd of a 39-year-old traveler from Armenia, who always accompanies his master on the road. Oganyan, who is among the five most unusual travelers in the world, is going to stay only a short while to rest in the oil capital of Kazakhstan.

His journey, during which Arthur replaced eight bicycles, devotes to the friendship of peoples. In Kazakhstan, before Atyrau, he visited Aktau. After - going to go to Uralsk, then to Russian cities. The final stop is Yakutsk.

- This is my third bike ride. All my bike rides are devoted to the friendship of peoples. When I first sat down behind the wheel of a bicycle (Atyrau's guest was a builder by profession), I just wanted to drive through a certain territory. And when he started to communicate with different nationalities on the road and saw how much respect I was attached to, I found myself thinking that I was doing a serious job - bringing people together by their journey. Wherever I go, I glue the flag of this or that country on the Count's box.

After lunch the traveler met in the House of Friendship with the youth wing of the Armenian ECO "Tavros", where he shared his impressions and told about further plans.

On his way, Arthur always met kind and sympathetic people, whom are grateful to this day.
