(Mongolian Steppes, East Mongolia)
Without a doubt, one of the most incredible experiences of my life. The sheer beauty of it brought me to tears, out there on the steppes. What fortune I have to be riding a pint-sized horse over the barren plains of eastern Mongolia with a nomadic horseman as my guide.
"The sight of the world put mad ideas into me; as if I could wander away, wander for ever, see strange and beautiful things, one after the other."
