One day I was looking at the wold map and my eyes fell on this weird place: Ulaanbaatar.

...Ula-what?

So then I looked it up on wikipedia and started reading about this wonderful place called Mongolia, about which I had heard so little throughout my life but now I was discovering that it's fascinating and beautiful and the language sounds like nothing I'd ever heard before.

Now, years later, Mongolia holds a special place (the specialest place!) in my heart. I hope you enjoy listening to this episode, where I talk about Genghis Khan's death & burial, and some other facts about the country.
