Have you been curious to learn more about the nomads in Mongolia? Want to live like one and learn more about the Eagle Hunters? Want to discover the beauty of Mongolia's blue skies and landscapes? Do you wish to create long-term connections with the locals and give back to the community?

This trip is in support of the Khusvegi English & Nomadic Culture Camp, which is a women-founded, community-led program that focuses on authentic travel experience where you experience living with the nomads while learning about their nomadic culture first-hand. As a way to support the community and forge lifelong connections, you will also be teaching English to the kids at our English summer camp in a very fun and interactive way that truly adds to your experience of knowing the nomads on a deeper level. You will learn, discover and grow as you experience an authentic transformation as a traveler. This one-of-a-kind Mongolian outdoor adventure awaits you!

We just launched our pilot program in June of 2022 which was a success as 50 students learned English with 8 teachers. The project is the winner of the 2021 Social Entrepreneurship Competition in Tourism hosted by UNWTO, ITB Berlin, TUI Care Foundation etc. Learn more about Khusvegi Camp in detail [HERE.](https://www.browngaltrekker.com/mongolia/khusvegicamp)
