Staying in a yurt in Kyrgyzstan! 🇰🇬 (SON KUL LAKE KYRGYZSTAN)

Son Kul Lake is Kyrgyzstan's second largest lake and is located at a whopping 3016 meters above sea level! In this video we make it to the lake, I go for an ice cold dip and show you around our lovely yurt camp!

Hi, my name is Ráchelle. 👋🏻
I'm an adventure-loving travel enthusiast with a huge love for off-the-beaten-track adventures. My passion for video and storytelling is what led me to create my KZread channel (Tales of Odyssey) and explore the world. Although I also have some regular travel videos, my heart lies with adventure, outdoors, conservation, and travel that most people are not aware of yet. But of course, I also visit some epic places that you have heard of, and here I love to show you around with my own little twist!
Through my content, I hope to connect you with adventures and purposes around the world to tickle your own curiosity beyond the mainstream!

    Hellooo , at first, thanks for beautiful videos . I was planning to visit kyrgzstan this summer and made a detailed plan, but probably I won’t. So I postponed my plan to next year. And also, your speech is so understandable , it is kind of english listening course to me 😄 . Anyway I hope I can go there, too . For now, I’m watching all videos

    Sometimes, the places that make you feel the way you felt, are always back home, no matter how great other places are. And at the same time, they are so normal that you usually don't even notice them, in the day to day life - excluding the most exceptional places. And these places, you can't take them with you, you can't just be there , you can't fly or hug them or be them. Anyway, i really wanna try those milk based little eggs. Oh and rule #1, good shoes and spare socks, hope you had those too. Did you hike as a kid?

    For me there are different types of feeling gratitude. But yeah being home or seeing my family in South Africa gives me that too. And good luck with the kurut, if you ever try them please share your thoughts with me 😂

    Interesting video. You’re like my daughter. Now she’s an hiking guide in Northern Italy. But she was also hiking in Canada, Taiwan and the area of the Himalaya. She had high disease in a strong way. Very ugly. You be aware for it. It looks like you had a little. Of course I saw photos/videos of her “actions” but I was happy I didn’t know everything at that moment. Habit of parents.

    Wow but it sounds like you have a very adventurous daughter, awesome! But I can understand where you are coming from not wanting to know everything so you don’t always have to worry! Thanks for watching this video again Alex! 😊
