Deep conversations with people I’ve just met are one of my favourite parts of hosting… I’m a British photographer living in Petra with my son who is almost 2 💛His Dad’s family are a Southern Jordanian Tribal family from this region. IG: @walkermccabephoto & @fionawsheppard I don’t drink or do drugs and I love being out in nature. I am a runner, yogi and open water swimmer, now turned desert hiker! I have a running group in Petra but honestly it’s normally just me. It’s on Facebook called “Arabian Mornings - Petra”. If you want to join me on a run, just let me know! If you have any fun ideas (or want suggestions) then I’m here for it: canyon hikes, exploring Petra, camping or just sharing a chill one. It’s often just me and my son in the house- because of this and the fact we’re in an Islamic country, you’re more likely to be accepted if you are girl/s, a couple or a family.
