For a few nights, we sleep with nomadic farmer families in their ger. A ger is a traditional round tent. Our briefing pointed out (with exclamation marks) that we’d sleep in tents and that we had to bring a sleeping bag that could withstand temperatures of up to -20 degrees. Our production ladies didn’t know that such a ger is incredibly well insulated. Our super friendly Mongolian hostess came over every one and a half hours at night to heat up the stove with dried camel dung. Temperatures rose to unknown heights in our tent. Luckily, it was pretty cold outside. After the temperatures in Alaska, I thought I had seen the worst of it. But I was wrong. The -40 °C in Alaska were nothing compared to the -20 °C WITH WIND in Mongolia. As soon as there was even the slightest bit of wind, it was impossible to take any photos. Every exposed bit of skin froze instantly.
