Are you planning a trip to Mongolia? Whatever it is that ignites your imagination – whether its the endless steppes of Arkhangai, the nomads traveling with their herds and their yurts in constant search of better grasslands, the Gobi desert and its wild camels, or reindeer herders of lake Khovsgul, you’ll find that reality surpasses any fantasy.
In 2010, right after finishing my army service, I wanted to take a few months to travel. Then my acquaintance told me she is planning a trip in Mongolia, and suggested I join her. After reading a bit about the country, its nomadic people and its vast empty landscapes, I got excited, and said yes.
So on a cloudy morning of July 12th, 2010, I arrived in Ulaanbaatar, and for the next month I traveled in a place unlike any other. Little did I know that my journey won’t stop in Mongolia, but will take me to Buryatia, Oxanna’s homeland, and would end up… in a marriage
Welcome to Mongolia, a land that may possibly change your life, as it changed mine.
