Our driver was named Aladdin. They filmed the Martian, Dune, and Lawrence of Arabia here.

Another week in Barcelona before returning to Saudi Arabia. 

A historic, bustling city on the way to the Costa Brava. 

Spent the Eid al-Adha holiday across the Jordanian border in the resort town of Aqaba. 

Back from the US, I had a day here. Our company built this airport, and it is beautiful.

My first rotational leave I spent with friends in Dubai dune bashing in the Arabian desert.

We took our day off to go back and share some Saudi heritage sites with members of our team.

My pilgrimmage to the birthplace of artist Salvador Dalí, and the Teatre-Museu Gala Salvador Dalí

Escaping the project in Saudi Arabia with two weeks of leave in Barcelona, Spain. 

More exploration around Aqaba Jordan. 

Living and working on the Saudi coast of the Gulf of Aqaba has been transformative.

An unexpected two-week adventure in Bahrain happened quite suddenly. 

Snorkeling on the Gayal Peninsula on the Saudi Arabian coast of the Red Sea is my new obsession.

Tiny fishing villages and vibrant towns dot the coast from Barcelona to the French border.

Visiting the ancient Nabatean capital of Petra was a childhood dream.

After getting vaxxed and seeing my daughter in the USA, I spent a week in Athens.

My studies of ancient Midian and Nabatean cultures has informed my work here and my memoir.

Leaving everything I knew behind, I arrived in Saudi Arabia in early December, 2020.
