One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Amazing thing I've done? hmmm.. Few years back I went to Morocco with my friends/siblings for about a month. We took there a 2-day trip to Sahara to stay with the Berbers in their camp. When we finally got there it was already getting dark and became very windy, so we went inside a tent for a cup of tea a la mint. By the time we finished our tea we heard a noise coming from outside. So we came out and, believe me or not, it was raining!!!!! Yes, it was raining in Sahara!!! We were told it rains about once a year, so in the end we were quite lucky we could experience it.

Teach, Learn, Share

If you want to meet nice people just get out there! World is full of really friendly folk and CS is a good place to start.
