New Friends in Jordan is a verbatim account of the traveling oddities that happened to me during the first part of my trip to Jordan. Specifically from when I went to Amman, Jerash and the Dead Sea.

I met interesting people, other travelers but also locals. I saw beautiful places and especially one really unique in the monto, that is, the saltiest and lowest lake compared to the sea level present on earth.

I should also say that in fact in the Dead Sea you really do float, as is explained in this video.

Ho sempre avuto tante passioni, ma da sempre più o meno latenti, le principali sono viaggiare e scrivere. Tra le altre cose ho una laurea in psicologia; ho fatto per più di 30 anni l’allenatore di basket; leggo tanti libri; sono stato molto appassionato di sport e di musica rock; e faccio improvvisazione teatrale. IL mio primo romanzo, che non parla di viaggi, si chiama LE TUE GAMBE SONO BELLE COME LE TAGLIATELLE
