Letters to My Daughters - Mongolia
Dear Clem and Matilda, I’ve found some more pics of mum having fun, for you. This time from June 2013. This photo was shot by my friend @syzana1 while we were filming in Mongolia with Ch 7 Sunrise and World Vision with @melissadoyle7 and @billyfosterphotography. It was taken on the salt plains in Selenge Province. The air was crisp, the soil was crunchy, and the horizon didn’t want to end. During the trip we went to a bareback horse race, spotted two-humped camels, ate goat stew and were lucky enough to be invited inside colourful and beautifully presented ghers. It’s easy to judge people on the size and contents of their homes - but that’s a mistake. The kindest and most generous people your dad and I have met have often had the least amount to give.
P.S. Girls - save up and buy a good jacket. I wore this one every day in Africa and all over Mongolia and I still wear it today.
