05 · Who wrote it
Batbayar Ganbold is a 76-year-old herder from Khentii province in eastern Mongolia, where winter temperatures routinely reach 40 degrees below zero.
He has spent his whole life moving with the seasons: keeping a ger warm through the steppe winter, and keeping a family fed for months without a refrigerator or electricity, the way herders always have, by drying, freezing and storing food with care and wasting nothing.
He shares those ways plainly for households far from the steppe, always with an honest word about what works differently in a house that stays in one place.
