In addition to the desert of Wadi Rum, the resort of Aquaba in Jordan is worth visiting.
On the beaches in front of the hotels, there are sections only in use by the tourists, but on the beach where the locals come, it is so much more sociable and there is so much more to see. Right on arrival I was offered fruit from a family. So sweet. From a pedal boat, a couple of girls called out to me if I wanted to join them. Of course I did. It was incredibly beautiful to hear their stories. About their dreams, their studies and their beautiful country.
