This is a place where
-your soul can dangle
-your thoughts may fly into the sky
-you feel the fascination of eternity
-you can just ease off, following the monotonous steady walk of the camels …
Feel the warm and fine sand under your bare food. Enjoy sleeping inmidst the sand dunes under millions of stars.
Timimoun, the „Red Oasis“ in midst of the Algerian Sahara. Wonderful architecture, friendly people, a lively town and still very authentic. Simple lifestile but great hospitality.
- Pros:You learn a lot about a very different culture
- Cons:too hot in summer
- In a nutshell:This place is touching everybody's soul
