Mongolia is not a morning country. With a super cool English couple and a bizarrely strange German guy, we were about to start a two-day horse riding trip at 9:00 am. We were supposed to gather between 9:00 and 10:00 am, which already made us suspect that we wouldn’t be on the horses at exactly 9:00 am. In the end, we left at half past twelve, as it turned out that one of the horses had escaped during the night and had to be found first.

Traveled route: Ulaanbaatar, Kharkhorin, Hatgal, Khorgo, Tstetserleg, Red Waterfall, Zamiin-Uud
