The Dead Sea

Deep in the Jordan Valley and 55 km southeast of Amman, is the Dead Sea, one of the mostspectacular natural and spiritual landscapes in the whole world. It is the lowest body of water on earth, the lowest point on earth, and the world's richest source of natural salts, hiding wonderful treasures that accumulated throughout thousands of years. The salty water in the dead sea is very useful and healthy for a humans body and the story behind the dead sea is very interesting as well.
The white rocks in the photo are rocks that are covered with salt coming from the sea water.  

Jordans landscape!

Part of who i am and my personality is that i am someone who is really proud of my nationality where i come from and my culture. This is because most people have one idea and one impression only about the arabian culture and countries. Where as if they were to look deeper and try to figure out what it is all about, people would then start to realise that it is not bad at all. We have beautiful traditions, cultures, and Landscapes. Jordan has very interesting landscapes as u can go from the mountains to the rivers, the forests, the deserts, the seas and more!

About me

My name is Rawan Jaber, I am currently a student in Kingston University studying the course of Landscape Architecture. I am interested in music, visual arts and performing arts. I graduated with an IB certificate, as one of my subjects was visual arts, this is how i was inspired to study the course. I graduated from The British International school of Jeddah - KSA. Moving to kingston and studying this course is not only allowing me to learn new academic skills but it has also allowed me to develop on myself as this is a very different experience to me.
