Memories from Saudi

As I walked through the tight cracks in the unending rock clusters of Al’Ula my mind would think back to a time where humans roamed the land without the modern day technological advancements we are all so used to. Our guide jokingly said that the etchings in the wall are like twitter but thousands of years ago. Very true. Humans would use the walls to communicate where to find water, tell stories and share art. What a way to live. I was also pleasantly surprised on this trip to be able to see dolphins jump along side our boat as we sailed to  the islands on the Red Sea in Umluj. for some reason I would have never thought dolphins could be found in the Middle East, so this was definitely a surprise for me. And To top it off visiting the city of Riyadh and the surrounding Al Turaif district, seeing the preserved old town where it all started and  seeing first hand the history that shaped this country into what it is today.  This trip was full of surprises to say the least and I’m excited to be able to share with you all some of the memories I’ve captured during my time in Saudi.
