Erika Keldibek kizi

Erika Keldibek kizi was one of my favorite FSA participants. She is an orphan from a small village called Ak Kyya which is located in the Naryn Oblast. She was so impressive in that she taught herself English. She spent her time in the US in Dresden, Kansas, another small village. Despite being in a small town, she was able to visit many places in the US including Florida and Washington, DC. Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty-Kyrgyz Broadcast interviewed Erika about her experiences in the US.
