Beginning of the journey in Ulan-Bator,the capital of Mongolia.Philippe takes the train to Konkhor: from the railway station Philippe travels on a 4x4 van through the pastures to meet a nomad family: on a place they will install their yurt (or ger) with inside all the pieces of furniture.On the morning there is snow outside (the weather can change very fast): for dinner the family will prepare "boodog": goat meat cooked in the skin of the goat.Philippe takes again the train in Konkhor to Bagakhangai: Philippe has a pleasant talk with a Mongolian woman about the Mongolian language.Near the station Philippe meets a horse breeder who is using a motorbike to find his horses in the steppe: these horse live free and sometimes he brings them hay and tames the young wild horses.Then Philippe returns to Ulan-Bator and visits the huge statue of Gengis Khan.Later Philippe travels in a wagon of the Transsiberian (Pekin-Moscow) to Dahran.In the middle of mountains Philippe meets a shaman who will enter in trance and communicate with the spirits of the ancestors.Philippe takes again the train towards the south of Mongolia to Sainshand: in the train young Mongolian men explain Philippe that they go to the desert of Gobi because it's a center of energy.So thousands of Mongolian people are waiting the sunrise, they pray, they sing, they meditate and listen to the music of the Mongolian violin called "morin khuur".
