Mongolian life is often characterised by the ‘ger‘, a large portable tent made of colourful wooden slats, tarps and heavy felt for insulation to protect against some of the harshest winters on the planet. Covering only 10m in diameter, they hold everything that is needed to survive: a kitchen, a central log burner, beds along the side and even a shrine. The nomad’s ability to up sticks and go with all of this when the seasons change is mind-blowing.
