New Friends in Jordan is a verbatim account of the traveling oddities that happened to me during the first part of my trip to Jordan. Specifically from when I went to Amman, Jerash and the Dead Sea.

I met interesting people, other travelers but also locals. I saw beautiful places and especially one really unique in the monto, that is, the saltiest and lowest lake compared to the sea level present on earth.

I should also say that in fact in the Dead Sea you really do float, as is explained in this video.

Spartan Accommodations in the Emirates is a verbatim account of the traveling oddities that happened to me in the Emirates, particularly in Abu Dhabi and Dubai. I stayed there for only 3 days, but they were intense. The oddities refer mainly to the accommodations, which to limit the very high expenses in those areas, I chose among the cheapest.
