Nestled by the Red Sea and encased by the Sinai desert, Dahab is more than a destination; it's a lifestyle choice for those seeking simplicity, community, and connection with nature. Alissa shares her experiences with Dahab's unique rhythm of life, where days stretch long but weeks fly by, a phenomenon attributed to the town's serene ambiance and the communal spirit of its inhabitants.

The episode delves into the environmental and developmental projects shaping the future of Sinai, including the ambitious regenerative agriculture initiatives aiming to green the desert. Alissa discusses the potential impact of these projects, not only on the landscape but on the community and the broader ecosystem, highlighting the delicate balance between development and preserving the natural and cultural heritage of the area.

Alissa also offers a personal guide to Dahab, from its stunning natural sites like the Blue Hole and Ras Abu Galum to the vibrant local community that welcomes newcomers with open arms.
