"Live the Cover!" Contest: Maldives

Great Travel Moment

In a place where children ride horses instead of bicycles, families herd animals instead of watching television, and where the stars shine like no other place; one can truly relax in Mongolia. I wondered what the people did everyday with such little possessions while living"in the middle of no where." In my few days with a lovely, vibrant family, I was able to see the simple side of life by running in the fields, participating in evening sing-alongs, and actually being part of their family unit. This photo captures it all, spinning arm-in-arm with young Mahgda - forgetting about all the complexities of life - and just having fun!
