Egypt

<h1>EGYPT</h1>
Egypt, a country linking northeast Africa with the Middle East, dates to the time of the pharaohs. Millennia-old monuments sit along the fertile Nile River Valley, including Giza's colossal Pyramids and Great Sphinx as well as Luxor's hieroglyph-lined Karnak Temple and Valley of the Kings tombs. The capital, Cairo, is home to Ottoman landmarks like Muhammad Ali Mosque and the Egyptian Museum, a trove of antiquities. ―Google

<h1>“Most dangerous hike in the world”</h1>
(Pre-renovation)

This hike used to be the most dangerous hike in the world before it was shut down and revamped in 2015 (after too many deaths...).
Check out <a href="https://youtu.be/ZmDhRvvs5Xw">what it used to look like</a>.
This place was created in the early 1900’s and you can tell from looking at it... but what a beautiful view!

Ojai

<h1>OH- HI </h1>
Much needed quick girls trip away from LA to our favorite little town, Ojai. Beautiful drive up PCH with good music and great company. Delicious lunch at Ojai Rotie- incredible Mediterranean cuisine with a great outdoor patio, wine and girlfriends. Followed by more wine in the park and lastly ended up at a wine store for more wine. Only two of us can’t drink so WINE THE HELL NOT?

Dubaï

<h1>Welcome to Dubai ! </h1>

Dubai is the hottest place right now, all influencers are going there to have a good time, create content in their Instagram profiles and sometimes they even move in.
 With dylan my fiance we went there for work and for the holidays we met a lot of workers, we saw Dubai in two different ways.

Personally, I didn't expect that at all when I came to Dubai. I thought it was a small town where you could walk around, get from one place to another without having to walk for hours or take cabs every times.
 A tip renting a car !
Dubai is a gigantic city, there are highways everywhere, roads, buildings, constructions ...
 It almost seems that the city was created around roads and highways.
 So we had to take taxis every day to go from one place to another because we don't have a license lol
To go from one place to another it takes about 25 minutes by car, good point taxis are not very expensive 😊

Contrary to popular belief, not everyone in dubai is rich and not everyone lives in luxury.
 There are a lot of workers who earn really very low wages and who live together in small apartments.
 We call them labour camps ...
 In these places several people live in communities in very small area they are between 4 and 7 people in a room.

There are also several families who live in the same "apartment" if you can call it apartments ...
 They share the showers, the toilets, and the kitchen, no privacy is possible.

There are also several families who live in the same "apartment" if you can call it apartments ...
 They share the showers, the toilets, and the kitchen, no privacy is possible.
The people who live there are the workers of dubai, those without whom dubai would never have been built so quickly, those who sometimes work 20 hours in a row and 7 days a week those who receive a more than deplorable salary, and especially those who do not really have the right to speak and are deprived of all freedoms.

These people come from all over the world (India, Nepal, Cameroon, Syria, Sudan ....)
 so they can work and send money to their families, which most of them haven't seen in over a year.
 So yes maybe he earns a little more than in their country but is it really worth it ? 
For most of these people, the companies that employ them take their passports away once they start working.

Dylan and I had the chance to speak with some of them (cooks, taxi drivers, people who work in building construction ..)
 I really felt pain, real injustice and enormous inequalities.
 How in one place there can be such a big difference in lifestyle.
We met a worker who explained to us that to eat he had to travel 1:30 to 2 hours to be able to buy a sandwich.
 So why so far?
 Quite simply because the food is a little cheaper down there.

From our hotel we plane saw her on a construction site, in the evening and at night there were buses that came to pick up workers for them.
 bring closer to their homes.
 To get on the bus he had to line up 1 by 1 and wait for the person at the end of the site to call out their names.
 Once they called out their names they were running at full speed to get on the bus.
 These images were truly shocking.

I'm not saying i didn't like Dubai, but i just think there is another reality than what you see on tv or social media. And I think it's important to talk about these subject.
I am not writing this mag to show that dubai is not a beautiful city or to discourage you from going on vacation.
Dubai is a beautiful place with so much amazing place to visit, wonderful beaches, lots of activities, excellent restaurant ... 
I will write another mag to share with you my favorite places in Dubai. 

PS : Sorry for my spelling mistakes, i’m doing my best, do not forget that i am French ! ☺️😊

<h1>Great News</h1>

As of March 18, 2021, Iceland will open its borders to Foreign travellers, who have been fully vaccinated against COVID-19 or have immunity from the virus. 

Anyone arriving from countries considered low risk will be exempt from quarantine if they present a negative test result. 

This makes the North Atlantic Island one of the first counties in the world to reopen after a long closure due to Coronavirus. 

Until now, this exemption has only applied to residents of the European Union/EEA, but will now apply equally to everyone outside the Schengen area, including residents of the United States and Canada, according to an <a href="https://www.government.is/news/article/2021/03/16/Exemption-from-border-measures-for-vaccinated-individuals-to-be-extended-to-non-Schengen-countries/">announcement</a> made by the Icelandic government Tuesday.

Visitors must present proof of vaccination with a vaccine that has been certified by the European Medical Agency, which includes vaccines from Pfizer, Moderna, AstraZeneca, and Johnson &amp; Johnson. 
This excludes Chinese and Russian vaccines for now.

The exemption also applies to those who can provide valid proof of prior infection. Documentation of full recovery must be in accordance with the requirements defined by Iceland‘s Chief Epidemiologist. We will publish full details in our <a href="https://www.encounter.is/questions-about-covid-19-in-iceland">COVID-FAQ</a> in the coming days.

If you are dreaming of traveling again, Iceland is the perfect destination. With wide-open spaces, low population density, and stunning nature, Iceland offers exciting opportunities for outdoor travel in a safe and responsible way.

<h1>A Safe, Post-Pandemic Destination</h1>

Iceland is the only country in Europe that is <a href="https://www.ecdc.europa.eu/en/covid-19/situation-updates/weekly-maps-coordinated-restriction-free-movement?fbclid=IwAR3lNsssE1G07viyE3DR-nhg_z0Fs9PNcKvrTSOVIILbnYa-ZSqmz2Zqm4Q">Green</a> as qualified by the European Center for Disease Prevention and Control and life in Iceland is mostly back to normal.

All of us at The P2P Life and our partners at Iceland Encounter are ready with our expertise and experience to help you with questions and custom planning as we move into this new world of post-COVID travel.

Hopefully, we will have a chance to help you visit Iceland this summer or help plan for next year!

Cabo San Lucas

Where to stay...
With so many options in Cabo, where do I begin?!
Nathan and I have a very special connection to Cabo. So much so, that we decided to get married in this paradise of a place. We’ve gone on several different trips - alone, with family, and with friends.
When traveling with friends, we discovered some great hotels for a more fun ambiance is Me Cabo. Part of the Melia Hotel Group, they are known for 5 star luxury service but have more of a party vibe. For example, the pool has loud music and fancy white plush chairs that look like day beds at a beach club.
When traveling with family and on getaways with just the 2 of us, we discovered that all-inclusive hotels don’t make sense for us because you’re paying a premium and you end up wanting to explore all of the amazing restaurants Cabo has to offer. It just doesn’t make sense for us personally, but if you are looking for some great ones, I’d recommend Grand Velas.
With that said, our favorite resorts are:
1. Chileno Bay Resort, an Auberge Resort
2. One &amp; Only, Palmilla
3. Las Ventanas, a Rosewood Hotel
4. The Cape, a Thompson Hotel
5. The Resort at Pedregal, a Waldorf Hotel
6. Esperanza, an Auberge Resort
7. Montage Hotel
8. Four Seasons, East Cape
Before booking with these hotels directly, I always recommend checking Expedia and Travelocity for great bundle deals of flights + hotels combined. We’ve been to these 5 star hotels many times and spent less than you would have normally at an all-inclusive resort.

<h1>Transportation</h1>
I always recommend booking your travel from the airport ahead of time. 2 reasons - you don’t have to be worried about getting ripped off by a taxi &amp; it’s a nice feeling to know you are getting a personalized luxury ride for $10 more with peace of mind of not waiting around.
2 companies I recommend are:
1. Vivo (<a href="https://www.vivolx.com">https://www.vivolx.com</a>)
2. Optic (reservaciones@opticpt.com)
*message me directly for codes for cheaper rates*

<h1>Let’s Eat (and drink)</h1>
Some of our favorite restaurants:
1. Comal at Chileno Bay Resort (Michelin styled food - overlooking the ocean)
2. El Farallon at The Resort at Pedregal (very romantic - overlooking the ocean in a cave)
3. Manta at The Cape Hotel (rooftop overlooking the ocean - Asian Fusion)
4. Edith’s (in the heart of town - a fun Mexican food restaurant - sister restaurant of the lunch spot “The Office”
5. Arbol at Las Ventanas (Asian/Indian Fusion - gorgeous restaurant and delicious food)
6. Flora Farms (farm to table - unbelievable experience)
7. Acre (farm to table; Tulum vibes)
8. Talay at The Montage (more causal/cool vibes)
9. Mezcal at The Montage (beautiful restaurant overlooking the pool/ocean)
10. Toro (sushi/Asian fusion)
