         		 The dunes hide more than sand; they bear civilisations and cultures untouched by the modern times, witnesses of the passing of centuries, of caravans, kingdoms and generations of humans. They remain proof of how fragile people actually are in front of nature and seem to develop a different understanding of the passing of time.: by oana28, Views[449]
         		 Men’s relation with nature can take bizarre ways; some might be afraid of the smallest and harmless creature, whereas other might choose to live away from the hustle and bustle of overcrowded cities and try to understand the way of being and thinking of his ancestors, restoring the broken link that evolution has destroyed in the human’s seek for domination.: by oana28, Views[462]
         		 For some, time seems to have stopped in place; although surrounded by modern aspects, their lifestyle, their habits and their daily life is the same as that of those generations before. The daily mint tea and bread, the processes through which every piece of skin has to go through to become the leather that will keep someone warm later on and the thought that his work is more than just physical labour: it represents his culture, his nation.: by oana28, Views[430]
     
    For some, work is more than staying in front of a computer and at a desk for 8 hours; it is a ritual, which has been inherited from father to father, which has been passed from generation to generation since unknown times and which does not fade in the modern times which unfortunately tend to erase identity and achieve global values and ideals.: by oana28, Views[408]
         		 Every strand of sand bears more history than we could imagine. Every heartbeat can be perceived better here: it’s just you, endless dunes, your camel and the starlit sky as your guide. Common aspects of everyday life become reason of celebration here: meeting a person after walking for days in the unforgiving sun, surrounded only by sand and occasional palm trees; finding water, without which your journey would be compromised in just a few hours; and the relation between you and nature, best represented by your loyal companion, a camel, which would bear you for kilometres of adventure, unknown and challenges. : by oana28, Views[414]

         		 Youssef and Hasan are delighted with the self-moving toy, far from understanding the reason or the nature of it. Their childhood was far from toys as well.: by misframed, Views[197]

         		 Despite the nearly 100 degree Fahrenheit heat, one guide ditches his soft leather shoes and runs up and down the dunes barefoot in his heavy garb. His laugh echoes on the wind as he runs, his sense of freedom clear.: by sarahewentz, Views[289]

         		 Later on the second day, we visited their Medina stall. We had planned on buying some souvenirs from the Medina anyway. It seemed to us to be a small way of returning their kindness by buying some of them from their stalls. After all, the Medina is a very competitive market place.: by chrishoskins, Views[311]
         		 Eloua invited us into his home to meet his family and enjoy some Mint Tea. We spent a very humbling afternoon with them, and returned the next day to have dinner with them.

         		 We met this man, Eloua Li, when his children tried to sell us some orange juice to earn some pocket money.: by chrishoskins, Views[288]
