  • Sunset on the savanna

    What can I say, I am a sucker for sunsets and South Africa makes it very difficult to take any bad picture of them. South Africa – 2011

  • A bumpy ride

    When going on a desert safari in Wadi Rum you will/should have the opprtunity to ride through the desert on camel. I highly recommend you try because 1) it’s surprisingly comfortable (well for women it is) and 2) you will feel like Lawrence of Arabia when entering this vast desert like a proper Bedouin.

  • Tea time

    When you are in the desert of the Jordan valley and it is 40 degree celsius, the last refreshment you are expecting is hot tea. However, I highly recommend you try it if you ever have a chance to go to Jordan. There is something about the temperature of the drink matching the temperature of the…
