Back in Syria after 6 years!

It feels like a step back in time at the magnificent Aleppo Citadel! 🇸🇾 More than just a fortress, this is one of the oldest and largest castles in the world dating back over 4,000 years to the 3rd millennium BCE.

Its dominance is no accident. This hilltop stronghold was the vital strategic heart of Aleppo, which was at  the crossroads of the Silk Road.

Its location also made it an essential military fortress and administrative seat for countless ruling powers over the millennia, including the Romans, Byzantines, Ottomans and several others. A true UNESCO treasure.
✨
 
For fun I’ve created an AI image of what the Citadel of Aleppo may have looked like back in the day, before w@r and the earthquake. 
Swipe till the end to see it.

A Tour of Le Tour 🚴🏼🚵‍♂️

This summer I had the incredible opportunity to experience the Tour de France 🇫🇷 for the first time.  I followed the tour from the rolling hills of the North of France down to the Pyrenees and to the Majestic Alps before the finish in Paris.

Witnessing the race up close, from the excitement of the start to the intense final moments of a stage, was a truly unforgettable experience. It’s a sport of incredible athleticism, tactics, and grit.

Swipe through for a few highlights of the race, riders,  and memorable moments. 

I will share a separate post covering the behind the scenes and the scenery of France.

2. TdF is a Family Affair:Julian Alaphilipe, a fan favorite, brings his mini me to the team presentation before the start of the

3. From Champion to Spectator: Sir Marc Cavendish as a fan

4. Is he the GOAT: Team presentation of UAE with Tadej Pogachar

5. Caravan of Joy: The much beloved caravan with coveted giveaways runs one hour before the start of the race. 

6. The Giant of Provence:  The legendary 🏔️ in the history of the tour, which motivated me to see the race this year 🫶

7. Alien or Aerodynamic?: The time trial equipment appears out of this world

8. Caught in the Act: Young clowns 🤡 giving Pogachar the thumbs down 👎🏼 

9. Small but mighty: Jonas Vingeggard goes full gas to the finish 

10. Inspiring the Next Gen 🚴🏼: USA champion, Quinn Simmons,  signs autographs for fans before the time trial 

11. 🇵🇹 fans: waiting for their fave riders 

12. 🚁: The buzz of the helicopters is a vibe 

13. Teamwork: a pair of riders nears the Mount Ventoux summit finish

“Wow!! What the f*^\k !! Oh My God! “ is the only way to describe what we witnessed last night. 
Listen with the sound on to hear the NSF.W reactions 🙉😂

Another amazing display of aurora by Mother Nature  to end a perfect week. 5 out of 5 nights with strong aurora and some clear skies. This is exactly how we saw it in the sky, no editing done here. The aurora was that strong and danced for a couple minutes overhead.

If you have the aurora on your bucket list this is the year to do it. The solar cycle is at its peak this year. Don’t wait. Go now!

Special thanks to @lorenzmira_lapland and the lovely @diana__abroad for their insane passion and dedication to aurora hunting. It’s truly inspirational .

What questions do you have for me about seeing the aurora? Ask me in the comments :
