This Photo Friday is from Sherry Ott, who is volunteering in Jordan this month with GeoVisions.

The Tree of Life is often depicted throughout Jordan. I happened to find this ‘real’ Tree of Life at Wadi Feynan on a sunset hike. As the sun goes down across the wadi, the sun perfectly illuminated the tree putting the perfect end to a cultural day. The landscapes in the area around Feynan are stunning and if you are interested in volunteering here, you could be wowed by scenes like this every day!

In addition to her Volunteer Chronicles on Briefcase to Backpack, Sherry gets more in depth on her personal blog, OttsWorld. Check out updates from this week:
