The Nomads at home

by claude-andre - last update: Dec 12, 2007

Goat-boys, yurts and grasslands

If you like beaches, crowds, hot nigthlife and frenetic shopping don't go to Mongolia.
If you like isolated places, nature, uncertain weather and surprising encounters. That's it!
Mongolia is not a country where you can easily travel by yourself. You need guide, jeep or horses and to have food & water with you.

Encounters

Here you are in the far west of Mongolia. An islamic region near Kazakstan. People travel often on old russian motorbikes. You cant' cross them without stopping, having a chat and sometimes drinking vodka.

Nomads camps

All over the country you can see nomads camps. People invite you to drink tea (horsemilk kind) and eat biscuits hard as rocks. They would sing and ask you to sing. So remember your school years.
