| Drifting down the Selenge River on our catamaran-raft |
A month ago our paddles sliced through the crystal depths of Lake Khovsgol. The waterways of Mongolia took us for a one month winding journey through the mountains and across the steppe. Through rain and shine we steered our canoes down the rivers towards Russia.

Our last day padding the Selenge River
Now in the border town of Sukhbaatar, our next challenge is to cross the border into Russia’s Siberia. Behind us are many good memories, ahead of us a new country to discover. Way ahead of schedule, on our last week we turned our canoes into a make-shift raft and floated down the river, relaxing, enjoying our surrounding, hiking, fishing and simply absorbing our last moments in Mongolia.
