I usually go to sleep at 930 pm in the nomad camp. Work finishes between 730-800pm followed by a couple of hours of Satellite TV. The most popular show among all the nomads (and I’m betting in all Mongolia) is “Mongolia’s got Talent”. I’ll talk about TV more in another post.
Anyway about 1030pm, Durukh, my host woke me up, and I was surprised that there were a bunch of other people in the Ger. He asked me if I wanted to go to his younger brother’s house. Well, I was sleepy and tired but couldn’t say no….
Five of us and one child piled into this Mongolian style field truck/flatbed and drove in the pitch black night to his brother’s Ger. The details are in the video:
Anyway it was great to meet Anna. She was just finishing the last 2 weeks of her stay and going on a tour of the Gobi Desert before returning to Switzerland.
