An early-morning hike in the back route to Petra revealed the Monastery in all its glory.
I had the great pleasure to spend part of last month hiking around Jordan. From the far northern ranges near Syria to the desert canyons surrounding the mysterious site of Petra, it was a breathtakingly incredible (and quick!) trip. I look forward to returning in the near future to explore more of this incredible country!
Stories will be coming out in several outlets over the next few months — keep an eye here and on my social media outlets for links. In the meantime, here are a few teaser images to whet your sense of adventure.
