They’ve been riding horses all their lives. They’ll be just fine. "That was the moment I started to understand why people say "Horses are at the heart of Mongolian culture”. …

Sample
July 4, 2018
Today was my first fourth of July celebration, and I'll always remember it because it was so wonderful. The fourth of July is Independence Day in the US—the anniversary of the day the United States became its own country in 1776.
I began the day by packing my swimming suit and a towel. Then I went with my host family to a supermarket to load up on food and drinks. After that we were off to a friend's ranch out in the country for a barbecue and pool party.
Sample
It was all so amazing! While the adults cooked food on the barbecue, we played in the pool. Then we all ate and ate until we were completely stuffed. Our friends had some old ice cream churners, so after lunch we all took turns churning homemade ice cream. Since the temperature outside was around 40 degrees, it seemed like the ice cream took forever! I would turn the handle on the churn until my arm was sore, and then someone else would take over. But it was all worth it, because when we were finished it was the most fantastic ice cream I have ever eaten! Then, someone asked me if I would like to try horseback riding. I was afraid at first, but they gave me a very gentle horse. It was so peaceful to ride the horse through the fields and forest. Finally, when it grew dark, we had a thrilling fireworks display.
Now I'm back home with my host family. Though I'm tired, I think this had to be the most exciting day of my life! I can't wait for next year!
