My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

This was a one of the highlights of my trip - seeing the young boys racing in the final to the local Naadam festival in Ikh-Uul. 
I love the look of terror on the boy in front whose horse is slowing down, and the look of confidence on the boy in yellow who eventually won the race. Though only 8 years old, these boys rode from over the horizon without saddles, shoes or any apparent sign of fear.
