Even Santa Has Mobile (Darkhad, Mongolia, 2009)

The taiga in northernmost Mongolia is inhabited by the Tsaatan people, famous for being the only reindeer breeding people in the world. They live in northern isolated mountains bordering with Russia, but modern technology has starts to show its existence. Blank CD hung on the window is believed to gather strong mobile signal, at least enough to say hello and send text message.

Bahkan Sinterklas pun Pakai Hape (Darkhad, Mongolia, 2009)
