Two weeks to go...
Well just over two weeks to go until the voyage begins.In Mongolia preparations are being made for the Tsagaan Sar celebrations. This holiday (8th February) marks the end of winter although the temperature will remain considerably colder than in the UK for many months. Tsagaan Sar is very much a time for families and a favourite food during this time is buuz, a steamed mutton dumpling, that is Mongolia's national dish.
On a personal level, I am wearing in my cold weather boots so that they will be comfortable!
I have my visa and all travel arrangements have been finalised by my research partner Shani D'Cruze.
If anyone has any hints and tips they would like to pass on about travelling to Mongolia please feel free to leave a comment.
The weather today in Ulaan Baatar is minus 24 degrees.
