Photo-essay | Jordanian Gold by Ibrahem Khatib, Israel\Palestine

This was the first time I planned a proper surprise for someone I love and admire.

Her name is Hila, and she is an amazing young woman.

We traveled by plane from Tel-Aviv to Eilat, crossed the border to Jordan. At the Jordanian side, we met Yousuf, a handsome young man at the age of 20. We rode in his car to Wadi-Ram resort and village. At the village, we changed to a small rusty track. Once we entered the resort suddenly the color of the sand was as shiny as gold.

As beautiful as it is during the day, your heart will melt when the shiny stars reveal themselves at night.
