Xinjiang: Kazakh Yurt (interior)

Rashit in his yurt. He spoke several languages and was always trying to learn more. When he found I spoke Spanish he spent hours learning new phrases from me and steering clear of smalltalk. "No talk, we learn. Word for horse."

His dream was to visit Mecca.

A yurt! I took a course called "Introduction to Islamic Art" last semester, and I learned about yurts... I never saw one though! It's pretty!
