Initially I signed up to go (not just for the adventure of it) to support my dear friend, @misscindrich, who was hosting this trip. I had never participated in a group tour before, and was so pleasantly surprised by what a wonderful experience this was. Christina, @jordanality and @nomadnattie curated an incredible itinerary - and the people who joined this tour were all lovely, lively souls. I am returning home with memories and new friends - which/whom I will cherish forever. 🤍🇯🇴
