As
a Nomad: A Daily Journey of the Horse People For the horse people, a typical day involves a lot of movement. From sunrise to sunset, the Nomads of the Central Asian steppe are constantly on the move, herding their animals and searching for fresh grazing fields. Early in the morning, the first task is to check on the animals. The horses, camels, sheep, and goats are all important parts of the nomad’s livelihood and must be taken care of each day. Once the animals are checked, it’s time to pack up camp. The yurts (or gers) are disassembled and packed onto the camels, along with cooking utensils, clothing and tools. Once everything is packed up, the horse people start their journey for the day. This journey can take them anywhere from a few kilometers to several dozen kilometers. It all depends on where the next water source and suitable grazing fields are located. The horse people are constantly on the move, as they need to ensure that their animals are fed and watered, while avoiding overgrazing any one area. Throughout the day, the horse people take breaks to rest and eat. They set up a new camp at each stopping point, where they unpack their yurts and start a fire for cooking. The horse people subsist mostly on meat and dairy products, as well as bread and other grains. Tea is also a staple of their diet, as it helps them to stay alert and hydrated. At the end of the day, the horse people unpack their yurts and set up camp for the night. The animals are taken care of once again, before the nomads settle down for the evening. They prepare dinner, drink tea, and spend time with their families. Sometimes, the nomads will engage in storytelling, singing, or playing music together. Then, it’s off to bed until the next day begins. For the horse people, every day is a journey. They travel constantly, taking care of their animals and seeking out new pastures. It’s a lifestyle that demands hard work, but the horse people take pride in their nomadic traditions. Through centuries of history and culture, they have developed a unique way of life that is truly in harmony with the natural environment.
