Hello. My name is Sewjee. I live with my husband and our 2 beautiful children in Ulaanbaatar. My major is accountant and chemistry teacher. Now I'm working for my own business. English is my hobby and i really love it.
I love to teach English and help with others. In that case, we need volunteers to teach English for learners. And, we also need someone to teach English to our lovely kids!
But what we CAN OFFER to you for now, its the real NOMADIC EXPERIENCE I'm the youngest daughter of my family. My parents live in Bulgan province which is 300 km away from Ulaanbaatar. My fathers name is Lamzav who is a driver and my mother's name is Oyunbileg, who is retired now. They need help to breed our livestock, there you will see and try the Mongolian true nomadic lifestyle.

Staying with my family you will discover the real mongolian nomadic culture, you will share their daily tasks and get to know rural way of life.
You will stay with my parents who are very friendly people. They don't speak English but you would be able to understand each other well with body language. Also, I live Ulaanbaatar but I always will be there to help you by phone and internet. You can also ride an bikes with my father to breed the livestock! The place is sorrounded by hills and mountains so you can hike and explore the area by yourself.
In the beautiful mongolian countryside, my family and my aunt has over 700 livestock, including over 15 horses, 50 cows, 700 sheep and goats. You will be helping breeding the animals!
In this time there will be calves, so you will help to milk the cows. And soon, they will be also work to shear the sheep!
For the food: We eat lamb, beef and horse meat. For the moment we can offer just lunch and some snack, but you willl be able to cook for yourself, so you can bring some food. If you are vegetarian, buy enough food for your stay, it is not easy to find veggies or fruit around there. In UB there are plenty of Supermarkets where you'll find everything you need.
English, Mongolian
You will stay with us in our traditional Mongolian Dwelling which is called as GER. Also we have house in the center of the soum. My parents usually live in the house except winter season.
We don't have car in UB but we have motorbike and vehicle in the countryside.
It's really easy to travel to my parents place from UB, there are buses and minivans. The cost of travel is 7$ (15.000 tughrik) for one side.
If you any question send me email and feel free to contact me :)
See you soon!
