Gratidão! 🙏🏾🇮🇱 🏜️
Obrigado Deus. Quantas oportunidades, tantos aprendizados, sensação única. Um passeio no deserto, conhecendo mais e mais.
O deserto traz paz e silencio. A imensidão das montanhas e claro um calor intenso na nuca.

I stood in a canyon that spits you out in front of a 2,000-year-old facade carved into rock, floated in water so salty it wouldn’t let me sink, and slept under a sky so clear it explained why they filmed a movie about Mars in the sand fifty feet from my tent.
Jordan is a small country that seems to have stolen wonders from three or four other planets 🇯🇴
Swipe through stops that turned “I read about this once” into “I can’t believe I’m standing here” — deserts, ruins, seas, and food that’s worth the trip on its own. ➡️
I’ve done most of these, a few are still haunting my list, and I’m not sorry about it.
