What was your highlight?

Definitely how welcoming the local nomads were! Everyone was so excited to see us; so hospitable and inclusive. Tea, bread and vodka were always at the ready. Every day there were new locations to explore – new and spectacular scenery, and new and authentic experiences to amaze us. For my husband, the highlight was a solo trek up to a remote waterfall and a river where he enjoyed a (nude!) swim in the freezing water. He and the kids also loved fishing in the beautiful rivers. And the fact that we didn’t see any other people.
