The Middle East and Africa: A Land of Contrasts. From the majestic pyramids of Egypt to the vibrant souks of Morocco, this region is steeped in history and culture. The deserts stretch far and wide, with oases providing refuge from the scorching sun. In Ethiopia, ancient rock-hewn churches stand testament to a rich heritage. Meanwhile, South Africa's stunning coastline meets rugged mountains, while Namibia's vast expanses of sand dunes await adventurous souls. The Middle East is home to iconic cities like Jerusalem and Istanbul, where east meets west in a swirl of colors and flavors. And yet, despite the many differences that define this region, there exists a common thread - a deep sense of community and hospitality that welcomes all who come as friends.
