Posted On: 10-24-2022, 12:31 PMTSRalex liked post by UKadventurer On thread : Anyone live in a Yurt in Colorado?I live in gers (aka 'yurts') in the mountains of Mongolia.

As you know, Chinggis Khan is his actual royal name. Temuujin his birth name. Very few boys get named Chinggis and...Liked On: 10-04-2022, 09:58 AM
