Mongolia daily life

01/19

Caption

Mongolia is a country with endless nature, filled with wild horses, yaks and thousands of sheep. When travelling through, once in a while you will cross one or several gers (traditional Mongol tents), where most peope live in, moving from place to place with a herd of sheep. Some people live in wooden huts, but even these are constructed that way, they can be moved if needed. There are a few villages and towns, which sometimes look as if they are lost in the overwhelming plains. The Mongols still live a very traditional nomadic life, mostly living from whatever their animals give them: meat, milk, fur... They move often, mostly by horse, when grass is getting short. Even the ones that are settled in towns tend to organise their appartments in the same way as the ger is set-up. Whenever they can, they go in the nature to visit relatives in the country (if they manage to find them), worship places where their ancesters have lived, go picnic or hunting. Marmots are a favourite target: the animal is shot and prepared in a particular way: the head is cut off, the whole animal turned inside out, the meat is cut out, then the body is turned outside in again, this 'bag' is then filled with hot river stones and the chunks of meat. The neck is tightened with a wire and the cook lies whole animal in an open fire. When it is almost ready, they scrape of the hear and skin, before it is cut in pieces and ready to eat. The Russians ruled the country for a while. Signs of this are still plenty: the concrete appartment blocks, Russian trains, trolleybusses and cars, the art of wodka drinking in destructive quantities...
