A experiência

Assist on a real nomadic ranch in Sumber, in central Mongolia. We have 500 goats, 500 sheep, over 60 cows, and 120 horses. The owners name is Alta. He is a kind and hardworking man, and a great cook! However, he does not speak English! This will be a very authentic Mongolian immersion experience, and will take some time to adjust! Alta has 3 boys who help during the summer, and a wife who lives on a nearby farm who speaks good English.
