A visual diary of the year I spent living in Jordan. While I was living in Jordan, the Royal Wedding took place seeing thousands of people take to the streets to catch a glimpse of the royal couple. I often found myself in downtown, an area located in the centre of Amman which became a focal point for celebration and activity during Ramadan, Independence Day and Eid Al-Adha. It is a place that both tourists and locals frequent with endless shopping, restaurants, and historical sites. Jordan is a country with a rich history and strong traditions. This history is easily interacted with every day, with kids playing on ancient ruins like a play park and an ancient city explored by hundreds of thousands of tourists a year.
