Sarah Fischer, born 1972 has specialised in Mongolia as a travel journalist, visual storyteller and author. She has travelled more than 190 countries.
Sarah Fischer has specialised in Mongolia issues as a travel journalist, photographer and author for the past 20 yrs and has lost her heart to these warmhearted mongolian nomads and their beautiful country. The first time she travelled Mongolia, she had the feeling of „coming home“ - as an adopted child, she didn‘ t know her origin. As she has travelled about 190 countries in the world so far, she
creates content for customers of the tourism industry for social media, catalogues or brochures and she is booked as a testimonial for campaigns and travel agencies/tour operators. Besides workshops for pupils, in which she gives them an insight into mongolian nomadic life, she compiled trips to Mongolia for the DAV Summit Club and the photo tour operator World Geographic Excursions. In 2021 she will lead phototours for them. For the car rental company Sixt in Mongolia, she is contributing photos and her know how for the german campaign: Escape to Mongolia. Her guidebook Mongolia was awarded with the ITB bookaward in 2015. In addition she supports german TV channels and production companies by organising shoots in mainly Mongolia but other countries like Southafrica, Madagaskar, Ethiopia, Norway and a lot more. She supports companies, that are planning to set up a branch or are working on projects in Mongolia concerning the introduction of employees to the mongolian culture. Fischer is beeing represented by the agency Kochan & Partner. Travelling in general especially to nomadic tribes, documenting their life and getting to know them that`s her passion. In addition she is a real mountainlover and loves to spend time outdoors. For fours years she worked for the record company Virgin Records in Munich and Warner Music in Hamburg before working for MTV Networks in Munich and Berlin. As she has always had the travel virus in herself she started her career as a presenter and photographer in 2004. Ten years she toured Germany and Austria with her show about Mongolia. Her free speach and her authenticity are two pillars of her success. Sarah wants to inspire other people and state, that adventures are far more important than material things. Her motto: Do not regret what you have done, but what you have not done! Partner:

And here I was staying with Sain Zigzig and her daugther; the Shaman of the Clan of the Reindeer nomads in the East Taiga of Mongolia. That was in 2009.
On the following pictures you can see her daughter, who has become a mother herself and Sain Zigzig, who in my opinion has hardly aged.
What an encounter that was. A lot has changed within the past 16 years. They got starlink, 4G, new cars and live in blockhouses in the winter. But in the summer and fall camp they all still live in their tepees.

I am so impressed by this place – really awesome.
Shar Teeg is one of Mongolias key paleontological zones, lying within the Great Gobi strictly protected area. (Zone A). These are geological formations from the Precambrian era. Fossils were first discovered in 1989. Early life forms and marine invertebrates, species such as velociraptor and oviraptor, a close relative of Tyrannosaurus rex was discovered here. As it is such a remote area and one needs a permit to go there, tourists are rarely travelling travelling there.

My mountainbuddy Britta and I had to finally check out that Influencer Hype Via Ferrata with the sky ladder in Austria.
It was fun, we started early and when sitting at the summit of Donnerkogel (2054 m) we spotted around 60 people queuing on the way to the ladder.
In the hut we go the Honeymoon suite by co-incidence.

Gestrige Reifenpanne mitten in den Bergen gegen 18 Uhr am 31.12.
Die Offroadpiste mit Caro`s Auto, einem ehemaligen Einsatzkommandowagen der Feuerwehr Schluchsee war wohl doch nicht so ideal.
Raphael hat uns „abgeschleppt“, wenn das kein Omen ist.
Jetzt sitzen wir in einem spanischen Dorf, wo gestern die Gehwege hochgeklappt waren und warten darauf, dass wir hoffentlich morgen
einen Ersatzreifen bekommen, um weiterfahren zu können.
Wir haben viel spanischen Rotwein und Bier im einzig offenen Supermarkt heute gekauft und machen es uns schön.
Und wir haben drei Mikrowellen auf dem Gang unseres Hotels. Eine davon haben wir schon abgefackelt, in dem wir eine Stahldose mit Wasser reingestellt haben.
