In July, Netty Nyong’a decided to travel alone to Mongolia for a month. She had always been fascinated by the country’s rich traditions and nomadic way of life. “Most of the people there are nomadic. They move with the seasons, four times a year,” she tells BDLife.

A tax consultant by profession, she says her job is high-pressure and demanding, the kind of work that follows people home through emails and late-night calls. She wanted a break and a different feel to nomadic life.
