Stories are an important part of the Bedouins culture. They are the majority of Jordan's population. Their great hospitality is something you never forget. Over all, I and my guide Ibrahim become invited by local people in tents for tea and resting in the shadow. I enjoyed being with Bedouins to picnics, joining Bedouin Whiskey parties, participating in Bedouin traditional dances, and drinking tea with people in the tents. Especially I become fascinated by all the stories I heard. You shall hear many things before your ears fell off.

Ever since St. Paul was shipwrecked in Malta religion has been central for the Maltese people. This is evident by the hundreds of churches and chapels scattered throughout the islands of Malta and Gozo. Many of these magnificent structures were built hundreds of years ago. The Maltese know how to celebrates their saints. As I could observe, the Maltese Fireworks Festival in the Grand Harbour in the capital Valletta on the 29th and 30th of April 2006, was a spectacular show, but it was just the beginning for something more: the coming months villages and towns of Malta and Gozo will celebrate the feast of their patron saints. Here churces and cathedrals play an important rolle for the locals.

The good, bad, bizarre and the unknown jungle. The area where you can encounter the most absurd reality. Some places seemed to be the real paradise for us. We found the locals secret places. We enjoyed showering in the waterfalls. This was as near heaven we could come here in the jungle, but there was also something going on ....

Some places seemed to be the real paradise for us. We found the locals secret places. We enjoyed showering in the waterfalls. This was as near heaven we could come here in the jungle, but when we took a deeper look it was also hard times for the local people. Opium - gold, money, medicine or poison?

The cart ruts are found widespread on the main island Malta and Gozo. South of Malta I found the most impressive site to explore them. As shown on our video clip, they formed here a big traffic jam! The mysterious tracks run in pairs in various directions and criss-cross each other like railway lines. It was strange for me walking in these parallel tracks at Clapham Junction by Busket Gardens, near the Dingli Cliffs in Malta's highland. The tracks have been carved out from soft limestone rocks for over 5000 years ago.

Through the narrow winding streets I walked around in Mdina, the old capital, to look for traces after the Knights. Their traces are found spread around the island, also in the new capital Valetta where I also took my time to find more about them. Perhaps a ghost from the legendary Knights of Malta showed up when I looked curiously around? Ghostbusting in the light of the Knights` history is bloody is really something. It`s said that most of the Mdina ghosts from that period are Turks, one of whom was hung on the city walls every morning during the Great Siege of 1567.
