eating. For eating and more baby. Wow. I want a baby. That’s so But how can they eat all these
sheep? But yeah, don’t eat all but slowly they take some, right? Slowly. Maybe they for a year. I
think maybe seven sheeps, maybe 10 sheep. Wow. Ask him. Yeah. Sometimes they sell the lamb. Sometimes
he said he one year but he killed 30 sheeps. 30 three row. Many many. Wow. Amazing. Yeah. So can
you tell them in my home in Australia we have sheep but they’re in a big uh paddic like a fence,
right? So they don’t we don’t have to watch them. We just leave them in the big like this but really
big fence and they just eat the grass. So we don’t have to wander in the hills. Yeah. Yeah. They
hold some follow the ships because they wolf wolf they kill the ships. Mhm. That’s he facey more
dark because the windy maybe sometimes you know sun. Yeah sunborn because of the dark. But what
happens when it rains with they use the plastic the plastic cover? They put a plastic cover over.
Okay. Wow. Guys, this you can tell this is not this is Yeah. by their hands. Yeah. You can just

Hello. Wow. So many. Uh, pay. How many sheep in total? You say maybe here 200, but total 2,000.
Maybe not. I think. Wow. We don’t have here 200. 200. Yeah. And uh they feed the dog uh sheep also.
Oh no, no, no. We don’t do the only only people. No, like what do the dogs eat? No, the dog they
give the jamba jamba jamba jamba like the powder we saw. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, okay. Oh, they just let
the sheep out. So, uh now he’s going to take the sheep up into the mountains and uh he’s their
shepherd and all the sheep follow each other. That’s why the saying says don’t be a sheep. Uh
and they they follow each other. This is so cool. Bye sheep. Have fun eating in the mountains. One
black one at the end. Guys, this is this is really cool content. I have to say this is this was not
planned at all. We don’t even know these people. Pay. We don’t we don’t know these people, right?
You don’t know? Yeah. First time. First time. Yeah. Yeah. They met also foreigner. First time.
Yeah. First time meeting foreigner. Wow. So, this is their dog here, guys. Uh, and the dog’s chained
up, but uh, what the dog will do is protect the sheep at night time. So, if the dog sees a wolf or
anything like that, he’ll bark and the wolf will run away. Well, hopefully that’s that’s sort of
the plan. This is their other sheep. Hi, sheep. So, um, yeah, they just, what they were saying is
they maybe only sell about 30 sheep a year, which isn’t that many, and they just breed and breed and
breed and make a bigger and bigger flock. Um, so yeah, super interesting, right? Super interesting.
250 sheep. 250 sheep. Do they have any small baby sheep or are they all grown? Oh, yeah. Here’s one.
Here’s one there. Hi. This is the little house, is it? Yeah. Oh, wow. Wow. So, they also sleep
inside here, which is their little house. Wow, guys. Look at this. This is just literally
sticks holding up the roof. And this is all yak dung here for their cooking. And they just
sleep here. Guys, this is as real and and raw as it gets. This is in Tibet. This is in China.
This is the real deal. You know what I’m saying? I’m so happy I can show you this. A lot of
a lot of people today would love to see this on camera and it’s hard to see. Sometimes it
requires a lot of, you know, permission to get, but we got to see this today. So, this is
awesome. Wow. So cool. And you can see, guys, their home is literally made from like
stone, mud, a little bit of wire just like that. That’s crazy. I just have one question. Is he very
fulfilled and and happy with his with his life? No, he’s happy. He’s happy. Happy. But he
just little worry. Yeah. Because sometimes there too much rainy. Sure. Sometimes they
hard to grow up the grass. Yes. No enough for food for the sheep. Mhm. Mhm. And in Tibet
the last 30 years, there’s been so many roads and infrastructure and all these things. What’s
the biggest change that he’s seen in this area? I think they’re trying to
explain the question to him. He he said maybe now the more common easy to
take the things from the convenience because the road construction. Yeah. But I think he we
actually the accent same. Yes. But maybe he hard to hear his ear or hard to understand sometimes.
He he maybe spoke different Tibetan dialect we have little bit. Yes. Yeah. Before the people
we only caring from the transportation only yak and horse. No more car. now more convenient. We
have the car and also the road. Very nice. So, it’s very convenient. Okay, that’s good. Well,
yeah, thank you for his time. I’d love to uh gift him this if it’s okay. Thank you so
much. Thank you. Thank you for your time. Black tea. Black tea. Do
you want to try? Yeah, sure. Yeah, that’s good. Wow. This is the uh
black tea. Oh, so local Tibetan black tea. Wow. With salt. You don’t have salty. Little
bit salty. Okay. Bye, sheep. Bye. Bye. Bye. So, uh, yeah. I’m not sure if I filmed
that, guys, but I gave him 100 R&B, which is around maybe $20, something like
that. It’s the highest note in China, so I think they’re pretty happy. They’re going to
drink some beers tonight. Not bad for, you know, 20 minutes of us, you know, coming to visit
them. Thank you for translating. No, no, no. You’re welcome. This is my pleasure. I’m
glad that you told them about the money cuz maybe Yeah. Good to be honest. Yeah, actually, I
do honest. Yeah, of course. We all dance. What? Bye. So guys, one thing I just want to emphasize in
that experience that we just had, what we just saw is going to become less and less. You know, these
nomads, they’re 50, 60 years old. they’re going to pass away one day and most likely their kids
aren’t going to do the same thing to what they’re doing. There’s a lot of retired nomads that have
moved on to do different types of work in Tibet, right? What we just saw was so special. I
think hands down that was probably one of the best local interactions I’ve ever had in any
country. Um obviously you know it’s hard to rate that because different countries have different
experiences and but I think as far as authenticity like for example when we asked them a question we
had our guide had to explain the question three times because they don’t really talk about what we
were asking right so they don’t really think about that which is just it just shows how natural they
are like all these guys care about is just their sheep eating food having a good time you know
they said that they were happy and for me this was the highlight of the trip by far. And I’m so
glad that this is in the start of the video. And I hope this video reaches, you know, lots and lots
of views because the world really needs to see what we just saw because that’s a culture that’s
fading away and it’s very rare. Um, yeah. So, thank you Ben from Elevator Trips for uh for
helping organize that. Um, and to our local guide, PMA for the translation and our driver for helping
as well. Uh, because without these three guys, that wouldn’t be possible. Um, yeah, pretty
handy. You might also be wondering, Jack, how are you getting data? What’s the best way
to get a SIM card? Well, that’s where Nomad ESIM comes in. So, if you’ve been watching my videos
for a while, you’ll know that Nomad has been a part of my travels for years now. I use them in
every country that I go. You might be thinking, Jack, what is an eim? Well, let me break it down.
Essentially, an eSIM is a app on your phone that creates a digital SIM card. So, all you have
to do is install the Nomad app on your phone, click what country you want, and buy a
package. I went onto the Nomad app and chose the package that I wanted. And bam, as soon
as I touched down, I had data just like that. So, no more lining up in long cues at the airport
waiting for your physical SIM card. Personally, I find that having an eSIM is a great thing to
have. Being able to have data when you’re seeing the immigration officer and having to show
your hotel booking, or even when you’re just traveling around and needing Google Maps, posting
Instagram photos, and I can even hotspot my phone to upload YouTube videos as well. If you use my
code Jack92CB, you will get a bit of a discount on your first purchase of an ESIM. So, if you’re
interested in getting an ESIM on your next trip, then click my link below in the description box
and get started by downloading the Nomad app. Okay. So behind you is Mount Choyo
which is 8,21 m tall. And as you can see we are currently in a very deserty
and barren landscape at the moment and the mountains are all around us. So
this is like almost a little valley. Okay, let’s go. Let’s go. Time to hit
the road again. Hit the road again. Okay, so we just stopped off at this random
little Tibetan village here. Look at my earrings, guys. Wow, nice earrings. And what are we going
to eat? Nepali food again. Nepali food again. Yay. Cuz we’re getting so close to the border
now. They have more and more Nepali food. So, are you excited? I’m super excited. Awesome. So,
translated guys, this says namaste restaurant. Oh, wow. This is super local. Nice place.
Namaste. It’s also pretty funny, guys, cuz all the locals are looking at us thinking,
“Why are these foreigners in our restaurant? Don’t don’t have none. Just one of these.
They just have I’ll take it. Papa one. Yeah, just one. Okay. Pa, who are these uh people? Oh,
this is the middle one. 10. Bachelama. Bachelama. Bachelama. And the left side number nine.
This is 70. Wow. Okay. This Okay. Okay. So, we just got a ginger lemon honey
tea. Let’s give this a taste. Pretty good. Here is the thali set with chicken
and dal. Wow. Thank you. Okay, so we’ve got our food here. How good does this look? And we’ve also
got our curry chicken and dal. Let’s taste and see how good Nepali food is near the border
in Tibet. Let’s taste. Okay. Cheers, guys. Wow, that’s just like home out of 10.
10. 10. Yeah. Okay. All done. Good. Me, too. You finished way more than what I did. Yeah.
Yeah. You loved it. Yeah. I love For me, the potato was a little bit funny, but it was still
good. Yeah. I like I love Nepali food. I can’t stand Chinese food. Yeah. Nepali food is the best.
Right. Bye-bye. Thank you. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Okay, so just here is the mountain Shija Palmer
and it is 8,000 something meters tall and yeah, just barren landscape for miles and
then the beautiful mountain. And guys, I um just wanted to show you there’s everywhere all
over Tibet is these high tension power lines. So, one thing I want to show you guys is
directly across from the mountain is this empty government building. And this is
quite common around Tibet and also, you know, in China as well. Sometimes they don’t go to as
planned and then they become abandoned. You know, this would cost a few hundred,000 to build, but
you can see what they’ve done is the nomads have came and they’ve put their hay in their their
grass to feed their goats and they’ve locked it to keep it out of the uh moisture. So, yeah, super
interesting. Just thought I’d show you guys this abandoned building. There’s a big security camera
up there. Uh, and I think toilets are over there. Okay, so we’ve just came to this beautiful
lookout with not one but two coffee vans. Beautiful little monument here. And we can see
the beautiful lake. Sophia, what do you think? It’s pretty like a dream. Do you think mermaids
live in there? Maybe. Maybe. Right. Maybe comes out at night. You should go and see. Yeah.
So, all of this comes from a water source underground. You know that. And that’s and the
blue color is reflected from the sky. Yeah. You can see here guys reflects the mountain and
the blue reflection is from the sky. And then the water is so pure. That’s why you get
the lovely reflection. So beautiful. Eh. Hi. Oh, for me. Thank you. Sweet. She’s
so sweet. She gave me this. Say hi. She gave this to you. Yeah. I’m going to I’m going to find something. Sophie’s going to see
if we’ve got anything in our car for her. Welcome. A cute. I don’t think she’s that used to hugs.
You like to dance? You want to dance with her? So, we also gave her this
little toy and a chocolate. So you can see guys that uh they actually have
solar panels out here. I think before they got power they used to have solar panels. Hi. So, Ben,
I just wanted to ask you, so the nomad experience that we had this morning, that was so real. That
was so rare and amazing. Could you just tell us a little bit of history about the nomads? Sort of
why that it’s not as common these days and um you know, sort of what type of nomads there are? Are
there different type of nomads? Yeah, lived here 15 years on the Tibetan plateau. Got to meet a lot
of nomads in my time. And you have nomadic people and then you also have semi-nomatic people. And
a lot of what we think of as nomads are actually semi-nomeatic where they’re actually hurting their
yaks roughly May to November uh when the the grass is green. And then in the winter times are going
lower and actually living in real houses. That’s why we call them semi-nomeatic. Now the guys we
met uh earlier today, those guys are real nomads. Those were the real thing. So those guys probably
had about three or 400 uh sheep and goats and they just lived out there in the middle of those rocks
uh by themselves. Probably their families live in town. Their their kids go to school in town. you
know, their their wives manage the chores in the house. But those guys live in that tiny little
white canvas tent with three or 400 goats in the mountains and every day take their goats out,
herd the goats, and then bring them back in every night in those rock enc casements. And uh that’s
how they protect the sheep and goats. And that is their entire livelihood, their entire bank account
all exists right there among those 300 animals. So these guys live right on the land uh sustainably.
And uh that’s one thing that we love to do as a business. We love to take as elevated trips. We
love to take people out to these authentic nomad experiences and let people really see what it’s
like because this is a disappearing culture, you know, because you have about 2 million uh Tibetans
living as nomads, but that number is decreasing every year. So, it was a really really special
opportunity to see that. Awesome, Ben. So, yeah, we’ve uh elevated.com. We’ll leave the link in the
description. If you want to do a tour like this, a private tour, see nomads, see cool things that
you wouldn’t normally see on a massive group tour, check out Ben’s uh website below and uh yeah, send
him an email through there. You can contact him. So Sophie is putting pawpaw cream, which is
like a natural ointment on her cheeks because of the hot sun. The Tibetan’s cheeks really get
tanned and red. And for a little girl like that, it’s really important to protect it while she’s
young. So Sophia’s just doing that right now. Sophia. Mhm. I just wanted to ask you see in the
west if we put sunscreen on a random child that would be so weird and like not good right but
here in Nepal in Tibet right you just did that out of a mother mother instinct yeah I think it
really depends on the situation also like if in like west like you’re not that friendly with kids
and then but here like she approached me first so Okay, so we are now at this beautiful waterfall.
Check this out. Wow. Oh my god. So cool. So, we’re almost about half an hour from the
Nepal border. You can see everything is now green and not uh not brown like before.
Super cool. Let’s go up here. The water is actually so cold as well and it’s spatting on
your face. Wow. Vita waterfall is beautiful. Okay guys, so we just arrived at our beautiful
hotel on the border here with Tibet and Nepal. And let me tell you, China loves to show off on
their borders and make everything look much better than the country that’s next to it because all of
the other villages did not look like this. Anyway, um we’ll see you guys in next week’s video where
we cross the Nepal Tibet border. Will we have any problems? Let’s see. So yeah, we’ll see you guys
next week. As always guys, keep it real. Cheers.

What CHINA doesn’t show you… the raw, real life of Tibetan nomads. This isn’t the staged picture you see on TV — this is the hidden side of Tibet, the disappearing culture of real nomadic families who live with their sheep, goats, and yaks high in the mountains.
We randomly met a nomadic family — the first time they’d ever spoken with foreigners — and stepped inside their tent. From black tea with salt to yak-dung fires, from protecting flocks from wolves to moving camps every few weeks, this is REAL Tibetan nomad life. These people are hardworking, authentic, and living in a way that the world rarely gets to see.
But here’s the truth: this lifestyle is fading. Roads, government projects, and modernisation are changing Tibet fast. What we filmed is raw, unfiltered, and maybe one day won’t exist at all. That’s why this video matters.
