The Significance of Embroidery in Hmong Culture

(Tsaatan 2) ... before continuing our journey to the Tsaatan (Reindeer People), we made a few day pit stop in Mörön, Mongolia’s second largest city of 39.5 thousand people, to prepare the gear and food for the trip. To be honest, I didn’t know what to expect when I landed in Mörön. At this point in the trip, I had already realized that this country was like no other that I had previously visited, so I had made a point of not setting any expectations. This being said, what I did not expect of Mörön, being such a small, landlocked and isolated city, was the massive array of coloured roofs! Blues, greens, pinks, oranges and purples danced in my peripheral vision at all times. Who says that just because you’re small and isolated, you can’t have fun with the color palette? I like your flare, Mörön! ✌️🌈 #mongolia #mörön . . . . . . . . #klinnemotravels #passionpassport #backpackerphotography #earthcapture #stayandwander #travelstoke #simplyadventure #whereveryougo #adventuremongolia
(Tsaatan 1) The hour and a half flight from Ulaanbaar to Mörön revealed both the vastness and emptiness of the country, with only the occasional white dot of a ger setting itself apart from the grass and hills. Mongolia covers a sizeable chunk of land and is home to only 2.7 million people, many of whom still live nomadic lives. The purpose of my visit to the northern reaches of Mongolia was to visit a nomadic reindeer tribe, also know as the Tsaatan (translates to "Reindeer People"). It took days of travel and an assortment of transportation to reach the Tsaatan, starting with the flight from Ulaanbaatar to Mörön, where we met our translator and driver. #mongolia . . . . . . . #klinnemotravels #passionpassport #backpackerphotography #earthcapture #stayandwander #travelstoke #simplyadventure #whereveryougo #adventuremongolia #Mörön
The nomadic people of Mongolia traditionally live in gers (yurts). Several times a year, depending on the season, they will disassemble their gers and move to a different location. Amazing! #mongolia #nomadsofmongolia . . . . . . . . . . . #natgeomongolia #whereveryougo #passionpassport #travelstoke #offthebeatentrack #klinnemotravels #adventuretime #adventuremongolia
Buyant, Mongolia felt like the last place on Earth. It doesn't get much more remote than this. It took us many plane rides and many days of hitchhiking and hiking to reach this place. I woke up to this view for two mornings... it felt like paradise. #mongolia #buyantmongolia . . . . . . . . . . . . . #klinnemotravels #natgeo #natgeomongolia #passionpassport #backpackerphotography #earthcapture #stayandwander #travelstoke #simplyadventure #whereveryougo #adventuremongolia #offthebeatentrack
Mörön is Mongolia's second largest city with a population of almost 40,000 people (2017). In 2014 a paved road was built to connect Mörön to the country's capital, Ulaanbaatar. . . . . . . . . . #mongolia #mörön #backpackerphotography #earthcapture #stayandwander #travelstoke #klinnemotravels #simplyadventure #natgeomongolia #whereveryougo #adventuremongolia
