YOUR FRENCH REPRESENTATIVE ON SITE
Hi, I’m Claire, I’m 26 years old and I come from the North of France.
Six years ago, I discovered Jordan for the first time, and since then, my heart has been captivated. My travels were divided between France and this wonderful country, particularly the Wadi Rum desert. I found my place among the Bedouins, who warmly welcomed me, especially Khaled, who now shares my life. Their culture and mindset deeply influenced my perspective on life, leading me to take a one-way ticket to Wadi Rum, with no thought of returning. I left my job as a travel agent in France to create this website with Khaled, with the goal of offering you a unique and exceptional experience on Mars (sorry, on Earth) in our company. Today, we are united in marriage, ready to share both joyful moments and challenges.
WELCOME TO OUR HOMES !
YOUR ENGLISH AND ARABIC GUIDE
Marhaba! I am Khaled, a 26 year old Bedouin, I was born in the Wadi Rum desert and I have been a guide for 8 years.
During my childhood, my family and I lived in a tent in the desert, along with my parents and my seven siblings. From the age of 6, my father taught me how to work with animals. From sunrise to sunset, I walked for miles through the desert, leading them to graze in the mountains.
Want to hear a story ?
A few years ago, in an adventure worthy of a novel, my father and I set off in search of two lost camels in the desert. Two days of escapades, endless landscapes explored in vain. With a touch of irony, when we returned from this exhausting journey, hungry and tired, we arrived back at our tent only to find our camels there, calmly waiting, as if they’d never left. Ah, the magic of the desert and its unpredictable mysteries !
The 742 square kilometers of desert don’t intimidate me because every corner of this vast land is familiar to me. Immersed in rich Bedouin culture, we grew up making goat cheese by hand and enjoying the milk of our camels. When it comes to our living quarters, we continue an ancient tradition, collecting the hair of our goats to weave our tents. This strong material acts as a thermal barrier, shrinking in winter to trap the warmth, serving as a living and sustainable example of our Bedouin heritage.
Now for the romantic part. One day, in a beautiful and unexpected way, I crossed paths with Claire, and that’s when my heart was swept away in the whirlwind of love. Since then, we have shared our lives between the village and the desert, under the starry sky, and every day with her is an adventure filled with happiness.
