And that was day #1 in Jordan. I’ll tell you about day #2 tomorrow.

I missed you guys so much!!! The stay in Amman was beautiful, we were overwhelmed by the Jordanian’s hospitality (Royal Film Commission, Queen Rania Center for Entrepreneurship, 7iber.com to name a few). When I say ‘we’ I mean the wonderful group of Lebanese artists with who I went on this trip. They are: Naeema Zarif, visual artist, and Mounia Akl & Cyril Aris, filmmakers. You guys were lovely to travel with!

More details about the CC Salon & what followed tomorrow! But I’ll give you a sneak peak: here’s a video of my presentation at the CC Salon (thanks Cyril for the video), photos tomorrow!

I’m glad to be back, have a lovely day 🙂

    I don’t smile because you look tired, but because with a “simple coup de crayon” you told us you’re tired

    I had the same dilemma with the WC, to go or not to go. The thing is that it was a one day round trip…. I didn’t go

    Awesome post as always Maya, and once again you picture my exact thoughts. I esp enjoyed the two borders images as I had them both. The “to go or not to go” dilemma eventually resulted in me not going 😉 and the Good By sign is something I will NEVER EVER forget! That was friggin hilarious on an official sign on a border. I have it on a photo: http://share.ovi.com/media/khouryrt.jordan1/khouryrt.10012 🙂
