Last summer days


We couldn't leave the region without visiting the most recommended spot in the region: Salalah, Oman. Although we'd already been to Oman twice, we'd never managed to visit Salalah, situated 1060 km south from Muscat. 
Like the rest of the country, Salalah is a very hospitable place, with nice touristic infrastructures, but it's not very crowded and the beaches are very well preserved. 
We spent a wonderful weekend there, enjoying the warm temperatures (air: 27°C, sea: 24°), strolling along the never ending beaches, watching the sunrises and sunsets over the sea, bathing in the strong waves of the Indian Ocean, and we also went scuba-diving for the first time, swam with sea turtles and all kinds of colourful fish.

Now we can start packing: we'll be moving to Frankfurt, Germany in just over 2 weeks!
