 In my mind, my adventure to Mongolia was the most engaging experience of my life. Over the course of a summer, I learned how to live in an entirely different culture, learning about the challenges of a developing country and the unique perspectives of nomads on the steppes. My research internship at the Mongolian American Scientific Research Center allowed me to delve into natural resource and economic development policy in a meaningful way. With the help of my host family, I began to understand the Mongolian world view. My time in Mongolia has been one of the defining experiences of my youth.
