The Call of the Desert

Every adventure begins with a call, a whisper in the wind that urges explorers to leave the familiar behind and embrace the unknown. For those who heed the call of the Sahara, the journey is a thrilling venture into a realm where time seems to stand still, and the only constant is the ever-changing dance of sunlight and shadows on the sand.


Setting Out on the Expedition

The adventure commences at the fringes of the desert, where modernity slowly gives way to the raw and unfiltered beauty of nature. Embarking on a desert expedition requires careful planning and the right companions—be they fellow travelers, knowledgeable guides, or resilient camels, the ships of the desert. 

As the sun paints the sky in hues of orange and pink, the caravan sets out, traversing the vast sea of sand. The air is filled with a sense of anticipation and wonder, for each step takes the adventurers deeper into the heart of the Sahara's mysteries.


Tales of Endless Dunes

The Sahara is a testament to nature's artistry, with its undulating dunes creating a mesmerizing tapestry that seems to stretch into infinity. Each dune tells a story, shaped by the wind that sculpts and molds the sands into intricate patterns. Climbing to the summit of a dune offers a panoramic view of a world untouched by the constraints of modern life.


As day turns to night, the Sahara transforms into a celestial spectacle. The absence of city lights reveals a sky ablaze with stars, casting a celestial glow over the desert. The silence is profound, broken only by the whispers of the wind and the occasional sound of shifting sands.


Oasis of Life in a Sea of Sand

Contrary to popular belief, the Sahara is not just a lifeless expanse of sand. Hidden within its vastness are oases, lush pockets of greenery that defy the desert's reputation. These havens of life offer respite to both humans and wildlife, serving as vital waypoints in the journey through the Sahara.



A stop at an oasis is an opportunity to connect with the local culture, as nomadic tribes have thrived in these harsh conditions for centuries. Their hospitality, stories, and survival skills add depth to the adventure, creating a tapestry woven with the threads of tradition and resilience.


Confronting Challenges and Embracing Solitude

The Sahara, though bewitchingly beautiful, is not without its challenges. The scorching heat of the day and the biting cold of the night test the endurance of every traveler. Navigating the shifting sands requires a keen sense of direction, and the solitude of the desert demands a certain introspection that is both profound and humbling.


Yet, it is in overcoming these challenges that the true essence of adventure in the Sahara is revealed. The triumph over adversity, the forging of bonds with fellow travelers, and the moments of quiet reflection under the vast desert sky become the building blocks of an unforgettable experience.

Girona

We visited the city of Girona quite often, but, surprisingly, all our visits were connected with the local airport – one of Russian low-cost airlines brings tourists there. And almost all the time, we perceived Girona as a “neighborhood of Barcelona” and a kind of “old step” on the way to the big city. It was totally undeserved. Finally, we decided to correct this injustice. I have not seen such enthusiasm to take photos for a long time.   The history of the city begins before our era, because the Iberians who settled these places needed a fortified structure on the road to Gaul, and the Romans needed the same for wars with the Moors . It was the Romans who gave the name “Gerund” to the settlement, which later became Girona. The County of Girona (one of 14 original Catalan counties), which passed under the rule of various ruling dynasties (mainly France and Spain), was formed as a result of various feudal collisions in the Middle Ages.   In relatively recent history, Girona has been da

  Nice is among the best cities to go to in France and will surely make you glad you decided to spend your vacation there. It lies in the French Riviera region, in Southern France, bordered on one side by the Atlantic Ocean and on the other by the Mediterranean Sea. Nice is also quite a good place to base yourself during your visit for exploring the rich cultural history of this lovely region. In addition to being an attractive tourist destination, Nice has many attractions for travelers to check out. One of the best things about Nice is the diversity of its culture and climate. Because Nice is bordered by the Mediterranean Sea, its weather is often hot and humid, giving Nice the distinction of being the best places to swim during the summer. Other than Nice beaches, there are other great places to enjoy Nice holidays, such as the Picasso Museum, which is well worth a visit, as is the Basilica de Nice. People who enjoy art will find much to appreciate in Nice and the surrounding region

Monaco

Monaco, ruled by Prince Albert II of the Grimaldi dynasty, is one of the few principalities that have survived to this day. The history of this principality is rooted in the depths of centuries, and dates back to the time of the Phoenicians (and this, just think of it, the 10th century BC!). The modern history of Monaco began when the colony of the Genoese Republic was founded in this area in 1215, in then Francesco Grimaldi became a local ruler in 1297 . So, the Grimaldi dynasty has been ruling in Monaco for more than 700 years, from 1297 to our days (of course, given the fact that during this impressive period there were wars and regime changes in Europe, as a result of which Monaco passed under the protectorate of various states).   The most significant personalities that influenced the fate of the principality during the 20th century include Aristotle Onassis, who significantly strengthened the Monaco economy with his investments, and Prince Rainier III, who developed the country’s
