  1. I love scuba diving but have only gone in warm water. My husband and I certified in a quarry where it was 50 degrees at the bottom. We vowed to never dive in cold water again. BUT this place sounds amazing. Maybe someday we will be more adventurous and try it out. Kudos to you for doing this dive!

    I really want to dive this, but also really claustrophobic especially to weird things like feeling like I’m stuck in a tight shirt or can’t get a sports bra off. This is why I have put off getting my dry suit certification. Is it so tight around your neck that you feel like you can’t breathe and is this dive worth a potential panic attack (the panic attack would happen while getting the suit on, not under water)? I’ve heard it feels like loosens up a bit once you are in this water, true?

      Hi Lindsey! I understand and that was one of my reservations before getting certified with PADI. Those are definitely things you’d want to bring up with the dive center and chat with them to see if it’s something you can work through. I talk a bit more about that here: https://theblondeabroad.com/getting-padi-diver-certified/

Ever wondered what it’s like to visit Mars without leaving Earth? 🚀

Welcome to Wadi Rum, Jordan — the red desert wonderland that feels like another planet. 🌌

From racing through the dunes on a 4x4 tour, to sleeping under the stars in a Martian-style tent 🛖✨, to soaring over the landscape in a hot air balloon at sunrise 🎈— this is truly a once-in-a-lifetime adventure.

Add Wadi Rum to your bucket list — you won’t believe it’s real until you see it.

Back in Jordan for the fourth time, and it continues to inspire me just as much as it did on my first visit in 2012! 🐪

Jordan remains one of my all-time favorite destinations thanks to its incredible diversity and rich cultural experiences.

From exploring the ancient city of Petra and floating in the healing waters of the Dead Sea, to discovering the vibrant streets of Amman, sleeping under the stars in the Wadi Rum desert, and scuba diving in the crystal-clear Red Sea in Aqaba—every journey here offers something unforgettable.

One experience I always recommend (and can’t wait to do again) is canyoning the Siq Trail in Wadi Mujib. 

There’s truly no place like Jordan. 🇯🇴✨
