I’ve been on a mission lately to see all 7 New World Wonders. Before moving to Dubai, I had already seen the Christ the Redeemer Statue in Brasil, Machu Picchu in Peru and Chichen Itza in Mexico. When I found out that I had a 5 day break in October, I knew that I needed to go to the close country of Jordan to finally see Petra, my fourth Wonder. Now, I must admit, all I knew about Jordan before leaving was that the capital is Amman, you can float in the healthy waters of the Dead Sea and there is an old city carved in rock called Petra. I definitely got more than I bargained for! Jordan is a place with beautiful landscapes, beautiful people and a beautiful, spiritual history. The man who took us around during our stay was a passionate, spiritual, hard-working man. He showed great pride and joy towards his city, his country and his religion. He repeatedly tried to show that people of different cultures and religions can live side by side, respecting each others traditio
