I came to Asia's most mysterious and unexplored country, Mongolia 🇲🇳 this huge landlocked land has not been touched by travellers and documented so I came here with @baldandbankrupt to find out why. Surely we can discover why this is the case and maybe even tempt yourself on coming to this unknown country, let the Mongolia adventures begin!

I'm german and my wife was born in this city - she was a little upset that you called it the worst town of mongolia. I was there during the summer and - besides the food poisoning i got from the local kebap shop - its a veeeery normal mongolian town. The hotel we stayed at was really nice.

I'm Mongolian and I have to say, if you have this type of mindset, please never set foot in Mongolia. I'm sure that he didn't anticipate first-world conveniences in a landlocked country located in the farthest and harshest corner of the planet. I understand that he had to make his content somewhat interesting, but I fail to comprehend that why he resorted to dig up problems that could be generally ignored. If your intention is to visit Mongolia solely to drive around and complain about everything, much like Mr. Ben did, you will find that the problems are endless. Additionally, I would like to inform you that the tourism season, a.k.a summer in Mongolia, doesn't truly start until July. So, if you visit any other season, you will witness the bleakness and depression everywhere.

I love Baldy. He talked so much crap about Mongolia. In his comments section on his video, he misdirects the blame to the people when he framed the experience very negatively. Granted, he was suffering from the plague, so it probably influenced his overall mood. Mongolia is 99.99% nature. It's Baldy's fault if he doesn't appreciate raw nature; it isn't Mongolia's fault. Get better.

@@unelectedbureaucrat2003 nah, he appears to like going to ex-soviet states and mongolia was one of them. it does seem true that baldy doesn't like being inconvenienced by venturing into nature too though but that's where mongolia's true beauty lies (and is true of a lot of countries) so baldy's representation and interpretation of mongolia is extremely limited.
