ODONTUYA Adiya (Odno)

Program manager

“Born and raised in the rustic yet beautiful Batsumber village, surrounded by mountains, rivers, springs, and rich flora and fauna, I spent my childhood in a ger with my parents and grandparents in a picturesque valley herding animals. My only childhood friends and toys were baby cows, horses, sheep, and goats. I used to spend entire days with my grandpa, shepherding the sheep and hunting for wild berries, and medicinal plants, and producing dairy products with my grandma. We have a unique tradition that involves offering the first sip of tea to the sky and, first bite of the meal to the fire, as we believe in natural forces and every mountain, river, and specific area has a spirit in it.

Our family moved to the city when I started school, initiating my journey to learn English and discover the world. In 2018, I completed my MSc in Tourism Management from Budapest Business School in Hungary. With experience in journalism and project management, I joined Mongolia Quest as a guide. My ultimate goal is to develop community-based, sustainable tourism in Mongolia, showcasing the last nomadic traditions and culture that align with the laws of nature.”
