Laissé par le workawayer (Bettina) pour l'hôte (We welcome volunteers who ...)

First of all, Minjee deserves 5 stars for her exceptional handling of the volunteers. She has an open heart for everyone's needs, an great understanding of people's characters, and the ability to keep the group united. Moreover, she approaches every problem with a remarkable sense of serenity. She is always willing to answer any questions about… read more Mongolian life.

During my 4-week stay at the farm, I had a wonderful time and learned how to work with cows, including everything related to milking them and handling large quantities of milk. Minjee also demonstrated the various products that can be made from milk.

Living on a diet mainly consisting of rice, potatoes, pasta, meat, and milk, we became quite inventive with our meals. While vegetables are not a Mongolian specialty, meat lovers will find this place to be a paradise. Nevertheless, we were also able to create delicious dishes for the vegetarians among us. In addition, we learned to cook different Mongolian dishes.

Despite the daily routine of farm work, each day felt unique and special. The farm is situated in a breathtaking landscape, approximately 5 km from the nearest village (Orchon, which is about an 8-hour train ride from Ulaan Bataar). The area is surrounded by free-roaming cows and horses, making it a truly picturesque location.

Life on the farm was simple, with no showers, and we cooked outdoors using a basic stove. Accommodations involved staying together in one house/room with 4 to 8 volunteers, all of whom shared daily tasks. Apart from taking care of the cows, we also built a terrace around the volunteer's house, did gardenwork, and planted spring onions in Minjee's sister's greenhouse. Additionally, we had enjoyable excursions to Dachan, a nearby town approximately an hour away. We had a great time hiking in the mountains and exploring the nearby river. The highlight was attending the Nadaam festival, where we witnessed horseracing, wrestling, and archery competitions. It was truly an unforgettable event.

We couldn't ride horses during our time at the farm, I hope that will change soon ;-))

Minjee is an exceptional woman, and I truly cherish the time we spent together. I hope we meet again.
This was my first Workaway experience, yet not my last. I had the pleasure to meet many amiable and great young individuals.

Tip: If possible, bring good rubber boots as working with cows involves dealing with a lot of cow pooh, especially during rainy days and thunderstorms.

(Excellent )
