I joined a Bedouin family in Oman in their camp and learned more about the fascinating life under the burning sun of Wahiba / Sharqiya Sands. The desert, the home of Bedouines and camels. A raw and challenging environment to live and to survive. Only two hours from Omans capital Muscat you find the Sharqiya Sands desert that was formerly known as Wahiba Sands.
