Mongolia Travel Day 10-12: Nomadic Culture and My Greatest Adventure!

Mongolia Travel Day 10-12: Nomadic Culture and My Greatest Adventure!
I traveled to Mongolia to learn more about the culture so I could
teach it better to my students. I went deep into the Mongolian wilderness on
this travel adventure to stay with a real nomadic family! I experienced many challenges,
but I also got a chance to look at how nomads in Mongolia truly live and how their culture is still kept alive to this day!
What's up, folks!? My name is Francois Harris, an adventurer based in Seoul, South Korea. I've traveled to 25 countries, and now that borders have opened up again I will be traveling more, however, most of my content focuses on life in South Korea. Sit tight and enjoy the ride as we explore some of the most amazing places in South Korea and the world!

Hey fam! This will be my last public video on Mongolia! There is one more I will release on Patreon or KZbin membership! How did you feel about deep nomadic life in Mongolia?!

[@Tiana888]

I am so happy you had bit of everything in your trip wow. I would be crying too. Really Loved how you mixed the videos and that food scene… had me thinking about the taste myself

[@francoismarc3]

@@Tiana888 Definitely a life changing experience. I should have stayed longer than two weeks:(

[@foodmattersborntoeat3782]

Hey Mark how did you like Mongolia? 2 weeks are so much not enough to discover wilderness. So you better plan come again and enjoy whole country’s beautifull wild untouched nature and fresh air. Ps: please add more scenes trying local foods thoughts and reactions.

[@francoismarc3]

@@foodmattersborntoeat3782 Hey there! I agree that 2 weeks is not enough time! I'll plan to go there this winter for maybe three or four weeks! I loved the country and felt so uncomfortable leaving. Mongolia is a country I could actually live in. And yes, when I make new videos about Mongolia, I will try my best to include more food and reactions! Thanks so much!!!

[@BrianCatalano]

What an action packed full episode/mini-doc... Lost on a horse, squatting in a creek, eating a rodent, and tons of cows... Couldn't ask for more!

[@francoismarc3]

Hahahah the stay there was incredibly eventful! I'm hoping to find that same family when I go back next time! Definitely couldn't ask for more hahaha

[@heralumnimixer]

Woah! Was a little anxious with the horse riding, but you managed-You are a true nomad! Interesting to see a black expat abroad in Asia- especially Mongolia, less popular places. Great vid.

[@francoismarc3]

I was born to ride Mongolian horses lol. On the last day of my trip, I became a master rider hahaha. That will be the next and last Mongolia video:( And right, I saw only two other Black people there entire time...

[@mondaydavaa26]

You had some true nomad experience. Great. It is bit more raw and unexpected you probably in this way than having tour company experience.

[@francoismarc3]

Hey, thanks for watching! Right, definitely more raw than having a tour, so I think I'm very happy with the raw experience:)

Foreigners don't want luxury because they know everything about luxury

[@soyondoyon]

Wow all your videos make homesick. I really missed this summer. Normally I go back to Mongolia every summer for getting recharged my soul. But this time could not make it. I loved your videos.

[@francoismarc3]

Thank you so much for watching and for the wonderful comment:) Why couldn't you go home this summer? I actually want to live in Mongolia haha

[@Gobizen-Mongolia]

I am part of the video but watching it makes me very happy and amused 😅😅😅

[@francoismarc3]

Looooo, these memories will forever be saved for us on KZbin and in my yard drive lol. Thanks for making all this possible, bro!!

[@utmprod]

Cooking the Marmot is actually illegal but it's so delicious haha

[@francoismarc3]

Wait, it is illegal, really?! I had no idea! Does the government really enforce that law? And why is it illegal??

Horse never gets lost they know where is her house

[@francoismarc3]

So true! But the horse wouldn't move with me...I was scared hahahah

[@조경하-t5t]

Excellent

[@francoismarc3]

Thank you for watching!!!

[@aggy1230]

👌👌👌✌️✌️✌️👍👍👍 That was a good idea not to go far away rumbling around, otherwise they couldn't find you. It reminded me how i was lost on horse in Mongolia in Amarbaysgalant monastery area ( if youve been there, if not recomend you next time), but i am a mongolian and i just rode around to find a ger and took directions. 15.45 and we don't do it close to the river or stream or whatever as we use the water, of course you didn't know that, next time just find some bushes, hill or rocks, not near a water.

[@francoismarc3]

Getting lost was not fun at all! I was very, very concerned, especially since the horse didn't listen to me! And don't worry, I found another place not close to the water. I also had a thought about that:) Thanks for your wonderful comment!!

[@Zamilan93]

dont take a piss right next to the river, people drink from the water!

[@francoismarc3]

Lol I didn't. I found a new spot:)

[@MrPetercsoto]

Nice marmot.

[@francoismarc3]

I was VERY skeptical about it lol

[@okieokie7236]

Noo you dont do that near the rivers and water. Never! Mongolians dont even put meat blood milk etc in water.

[@francoismarc3]

I didn't do nearly the water hahaha, I found another spot:)

It is illegal to kill gopher😢

Great video, just as an info do not relieve yourself near the river. It’s culturally unacceptable.

Hey, thanks so much! And right, I agree, so I found another place to take care of business away from thr water:)
