The beautiful country of Iraq is culture-rich, filled with a plethora of historic sites, and is home to some of the world's most hospitable people. It was one of my travel highlights. BUT... Protests have gripped the country recently, with more than 400 people dead. It is a tragedy to hear about such violence and oppression when only a few months ago, when I was there, the country was coming out of crisis and a sense of hope was in the atmosphere. Let's hope that peace prevails, corruption decreases, and the Iraqi people can build a state WITHOUT foreign meddling (be it American, Iranian, Saudi or otherwise). Good luck to all of my friends in Iraq reading this. تحياتي للشعب العراقي الشقيق. ⁦🇮🇶 #iraq #baghdad #euphrates #najaf #babylon #middleeast #middleeasttravel #offthebeatentrack #protest #protesting #arab #العراق #بغداد #النجف_الأشرف #النجف #بابل #مظاهرات #سياحة #كلنا_العراق (at Iraq) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5xLSsrFKfw/?igshid=ec4wk2u4ilmi

A view of Damascus city, as seen from the revolving restaurant on top of Sham hotel.

A rural North Korean village, nearby the Chilbosan national park area. (Picture taken during my NK trip in 2017). This part of the country was less affected during the Korean war than other parts, and hence a lot of old architecture remains. #northhamgyong #northkorea #dprk #old #villagelife #chilbosan #mountchilbo #asianvillage #chosun #korea #secretphotography #offthebeatentrack #adventuretravel (at North Korea) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4rnytgFK_Z/?igshid=1dl7ulrva5bny

Somewhere in the Pakistani mountains, taken from the Karakorum Highway, which runs from Islamabad to China. Pakistan is one of the most naturally beautiful countries I've been to. #pakistan #karkorum #roadtrips #highway #mountains #offthebeatentrack #adventuretravel #nature #natureporn #باكستان #السفر #رحلات #رحال #السياحة #solotravel #pakistani #scenery (at Karakoram Highway) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4SrB6BlVtC/?igshid=o7k2j1bixfxu

The grave of Salah Addine Al Ayoubi, the founder of the Ayyubid Dynasty and the famous anti-crusader. It is located next to the famous Ummayad Mosque in Damascus, Syria.

Few people realise that Saudi Arabia is more than just desert. These pictures show the mountains in the South West of the country, near the Yemeni border. These pictures are mostly from Jizan province (Faifa), but also Abha area. #saudinature #saudi_arabia #sauditourism #saudi #middleeasttravel #middleeast #yemen #mountains #terraces #beauty #beautifulviews #nature #greenery #arab #adventuretravel #offthebeatentrack #السعودية #سعودي #الشىرق_الأوسط #جيزان #السودة #جبال #مناظر #خضراء #العرب #اليمن #الحدود #travellingtheunknown (at Saudi Arabia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3R06FdoXsO/?igshid=1py9h73l7f90j

A hidden valley nearby Oman's famous Wadi Shab.

Sitting on top of an ancient tomb in Mada'in Shoaib in northern Saudi Arabia. This ancient city was supposedly home to Moses for more than a decade. It resembles the world famous ruins of Petra, just across the border to the north. #tabuk #saudi_arabia #sauditourism #madainsaleh #madainshoaib #مدائن_شعيب #تبوك #السعودية #الأردن #البتراء #adventuretravel #solotravel #travellingtheunknown #middleeast #middleeasttravel #offthebeatentrack #سفر #سياحة #آثار #محمية #العرب #jordan #petra (at Tabuk, Saudi Arabia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B3MoC2MIYab/?igshid=g7nhikwnlqh0
