Lonely home

This summer I went hiking in North Ossetia (Alania). Every day my friends and I stayed in new places (we lived in tents) and every day we spent 5-6 hours on mountain crossings. On the ninth day we stopped near the famous city of the dead "Dargavs" and in the morning we went to see the place. Our road lied between the mountain ranges and only an hour later we came across a house. It was a lonely house in the mountains.
