volunteer summer conference

it was held in bayan khangai, northeast of the capital. about an hour's drive. the countryside vista of summer was a refreshing sight having stayed in the city during winter and spring. however, swarm of horseflies and other insects welcomed us upon our arrival.

going back to mongolia

stuck for a while at incheon international airport because of bad weather in ulaanbaatar, i went windowshopping. i got hungry and so went for a bite of tuna sandwich. i was looking at the sunset and saw this guard on the side watching tv. it looked quite nice.


actually while i was in the philippines, i was already looking forward to going back. strange but now i can relate to people who have been out of mongolia and have felt the same.
