We finally started a Sahha Sahara blog.

People often ask what led me to leave Canada and build a new life here. The answer isn’t simple—it’s made up of countless quiet moments, powerful encounters, and a deep connection to the desert that I couldn’t ignore.

Chott El Jerid; the largest salt pan in the Sahara - between 5 and 7 thousand meters in size, and between 10 and 25 meters below sea level. After a rain it is glistening white, with a long rain it is like a sea.

Happy International Star Wars Day. Whether you are a Star Wars fan or not, it is so interesting how much Berber and Bedouin cultural influence was integrated into the film. From the landscape and clothing to architecture and sounds (even camel sounds) had such an impact on George Lucas that it influenced the film tremendously. I didnt want to do Star Wars tours until after numerous years of living here, I discovered there were so many more influences than just the normal "Star Wars Tours" show.
(Also English Patient and Raiders of the Lost Ark were filmed here)
