I received this book by courier a few days ago. It was written by my friend Mark who is the founder of Connecting Cultures. Roughly 80% of the images in the book are mine, having accompanied Mark on three of his Connecting cultures expeditions. Mark's Connecting Cultures website is well worth a visit to understand what CC is all about - http://www.connectingcultures.co.uk/
The journeys with Connecting Cultures reminded me of a very special person - Jaber Al Wahebi, a bedu who has lived with his family in tents in the Wahiba Sands of Oman all his life. A happier man you would struggle to find. I have had the good fortune to meet up with Jaber on several occasions. He has a 4WD vehicle and occasionally does visit the 'big smoke' of Muscat, but prefers the simple desert life.
