Living with a Mongolian Family in a Ger 🇲🇳 Монгол



I share my experience living with a Mongolian family in a traditional Ger. Leaving the South Gobi, I also stop at Ongi Monastery on the way further north in Mongolia (Монгол).

I’m Jason, a full-time British Travel Vlogger and YouTuber who’s been to 61 countries. I’ve been travelling around the world full-time since 2017.

I have travel series’ from many of the world’s best (and least) known destinations. I filmed the first vlogs on my channel in the summer of 2016 after spending a year living in China. A proper solo trip around Eastern Europe followed after graduating from University in the summer of 2017, taking me to Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, North Macedonia and Kosovo. This marked the start of my efforts to turn vlogging into a full-time job.

After that European trip I explored much of Asia: visiting India, Bangladesh, Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, Pakistan, the Philippines, South Korea and Kazakhstan.

I have also travelled to North Africa and the Middle East fairly extensively over the last five years, filming videos in Turkey, Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait, Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, Israel and Palestine.

I’ve travelled to North America just once as a YouTuber, visiting Mexico in 2021. Though I have been to both the USA and Canada, this was as a child on family holidays.

In 2022, I took my first trip to Sub Saharan Africa, visiting Kenya and Tanzania, before heading to the Middle East, stopping in Dubai and Lebanon. Europe followed, covering both the Greek and Turkish sides of Cyprus, and afterwards going back to Italy for the second time to cover Milan and Sicily. I then visited the Caribbean for the first time, covering the Dominican Republic, before heading to both Brussels and Amsterdam, then covering Taiwan and the Philippines in Asia. I finished off the year with a trip around Morocco.

I started my travels in 2023 by finally visiting Paris, taking the Eurostar from London. I then headed over to Qatar for a few days, before heading to Asia, with videos following from India, Singapore, Taiwan, Japan and Mongolia.

  1. Thank you for sharing this amazing trip with all of us! So interesting to see such a different way of life than most of us will ever experience. I couldn't help noticing someone looking at an iphone…is there actually service there?

  2. WOW Jason! What an incredibly fantastic video with the Mongolian family! I have thoroughly enjoyed all of your many visits to so many unique locations throughout Africa and Asia! I always tell my friends, I've learned much, much more about life through my many travel adventures than I ever did at college/university…haha! You too are gaining such an amazing education about all of the different climates/cultures in this world. I would expect someday you'll be hosting a travel show on the BBC!!! Thank you!

  3. Warning: my brother, a geologist employed by a mining company, was in the Gobi on a gold exploration mission. He returned home 30 pounds lighter, having contracted a parasite. Apparently this is a common problem in Mongolia.

  4. Very good experience, seeing different cultures, foods, and drink. I love how no matter where we roam, someone knows how to make a home brew. Jason got waisted, lol. Good times.😻😇😵‍💫

  5. That was such a great experience as if I was there with you all thank you Jason A great video and coverage like always. Very frienfly people there in mongolia

  6. The ger is almost identical to the Kazakh yurt: the roof is shallower, and it doesn't look like Mongolians use felt to cover the structural wooden frame but canvas, but other than that, it's the same. Both even have the shanyrak – the oculus in the center of the roof to allow smoke out and ventilate the inside.

  7. The Mongolia series is vintage you, and will rank alongside your Egypt series from the early 2021 for me in terms of both breadth and depth of coverage.

  8. Thanks for the fascinating journey into Mongolia. I have been following your videos for a while. One question though : I see many clouds up in sky so why is Mongolia so dry. Surely they'll fall as rain sooner or later? Thanks

  9. I just experience this in Kharkhorin last week.They make butter, yogurt,cheese,wine, cookies from milk everyday.

    Very interesting

  10. Thanks Jason
    One of your best videos showing the genuineness of a fast disappearing way of life. They looked to be having as much fun as you and the cooked goat looked delicious

  11. Sandwiched between two of the biggest Communist countries, I doubt that Mongolia will ever be a true democracy.

  12. Would you like tobe a real Traveling Artist like VanGogh
    That's Why you need the Color and Canvas with a little sketch book
    because Life should be Sweet and Colorful just like Vincent did that .

    VanGogh looks like the Water for the fish ,
    and " fish " is the traveling Artists
    Vincent is a kind of great Lifestyle , believe Me

    Go mad and Release Yourself just like Vincent did that ,
    and this is the Greatest LifeStyle in the Earth

    Go mad and Release Yourself like VanGogh
    Go mad and Release Yourself like VanGogh
    Go mad and Release Yourself like VanGogh

  13. Thank you, mate. You know, Your video will be invested in Mongolia so much. But sometimes, no need to invest, maybe, let them live how they are. You can feel Mongolia. The people living in the world do not know about Mongolia; it is not a Western world, Russia, China, or the USA and it is not a world you know. Most of the world's people look at this lifestyle as poverty but actually, it is a life, not a use of unnecessary things.
