    I love Baldy. He talked so much crap about Mongolia. In his comments section on his video, he misdirects the blame to the people when he framed the experience very negatively. Granted, he was suffering from the plague, so it probably influenced his overall mood. Mongolia is 99.99% nature. It's Baldy's fault if he doesn't appreciate raw nature; it isn't Mongolia's fault. Get better.

    I'm Mongolian and I have to say, if you have this type of mindset, please never set foot in Mongolia. I'm sure that he didn't anticipate first-world conveniences in a landlocked country located in the farthest and harshest corner of the planet. I understand that he had to make his content somewhat interesting, but I fail to comprehend that why he resorted to dig up problems that could be generally ignored. If your intention is to visit Mongolia solely to drive around and complain about everything, much like Mr. Ben did, you will find that the problems are endless. Additionally, I would like to inform you that the tourism season, a.k.a summer in Mongolia, doesn't truly start until July. So, if you visit any other season, you will witness the bleakness and depression everywhere.
