We were headed out of town to visit a Mongolian herder family, the first time for Martin. Even though he had had a long, difficult flight he was cheerful and excited. Along the way, he narrated the following lines:
“When I hear the word Mongolia, the first thing that comes to my mind is cashmere, probably because I worked in the cashmere industry now for several years. Mongolia is known for being called the Land of Cashmere. I have been to inner Mongolia, but never the outer. This is my first time. You know, coming here is fantastic and seeing this today, coming out into the countryside, seeing the mountains, this is very interesting. Because obviously, London is the city you can't see much of the nature, it's great to come out and see all this beautiful landscape.”
