Lesotho
There where shepherds rule the mountain and the weather decides the day. Lesotho is a wonderful and interesting country to visit. Totally landlocked and completely in the mountains. There is a lot of poverty and shepherds live like they do for thousands of years. It’s cheap and the people are very kind.
