philippine tv gma7 crew for i-witness, a documentary program came to mongolia to feature the lives of vso filipino volunteers. the 2 guys stayed with me while in ulaanbaatar. the 2 ladies stayed with margie, another filipino volunteer.
we got to play 'pusoy' over borgio-the local beer with 'boy bawang' for nibbles. our guests had a taste of mongolian noodles cooked a la filipino, chili adobo in coconut milk, horse and camel meat menudo and fried chicken in my own 'mang jose' sauce. they got to see some of the local tourist places in ulaanbaatar - sukhbaatar square, zaisan tolgai, an old monastery, the souvenir shops, throat singing and the filipino band in strings - a local resto and bar.
they went to the countryside where their subject volunteers were placed - to darkhan, arvakhir and kharkhorin. quite an enjoyable experience. and an exhausting one according to them.
