"So, the Middle East, you say? What on earth for!"
"... are you mad?!?"
"...I guess we should say a proper goodbye now, then?"
These are just a few of the reactions I've received after describing my latest travel plans to friends and family.
Why the Middle East? It has such fantastic history, a landscape from another world and a reputation (from those who've 'dared' to go there) for having remarkably friendly locals. Why not the Middle East?
I'm not mad, or not more than any Classics enthusiast tends to be. I'm just happy to have to opportunity to explore a little more of this world we live in.
