Jordan was Raj’s first experience in the middle east, riding into Aqaba. For a first place, what a great choice. Not only is Raj a history buff, but it is located right on the tip of the Red Sea, crystal blue water and jagged mountains scratching the sky. 

From here, Raj heads to Wadi Rum Desert and beyond. 

With his passions in the right place, Raj explored and hitchhiked every part of this country, and was a perfect guest to have on the show. 

Talking on Wadi Rum, he talks about sleeping under the stars with nothing but a mattress, and how the landscape looks like the moon at night, and Mars during the day! 

A must do for this gorgeous and under-estimated country is the ancient city of Petra and the Valley Of Moses. 

Raj explores trails, speaks with the friendly locals, drinks tea, floats in the Dead Sea and tells us about his adventure backpacking through this corner of the globe. 

You can read a more detailed article of his time from Raj’s guest blog with Travel With Cooky’s site. 

Raj also hosts his own podcast, which you can follow here.
