While in the jailoo we hiked to a holy cave where there was some kind of party going on.

My host cousin collecting water.

My extended host family's jailoo hut.

A Kyrgyz lady singing.

Jailoo party! I got invited because I had a camera.

Me with my host sisters in the jailoo- the jailoo is basically the pastures in the mountians where Kyrgyz people traditionally spend the summer with their animals so they can graze.
