My apartment building.
Al-Rehab (pronounced like al reehob) means something along the lines of big open spaces, not a detox center.
Camel meat hangs, waiting to be cooked by the guy on the right. Probably not up to Health Department standards, but still delicious.
Me playing chess against a bunch of
jabbali (mountain people) guys in a random
jabbali village searching for people to interview. The match was dubbed "Oman vs. America." It was a really good game. I lost in the end, but we each only had 2 pieces on the board.
Camels roaming along the road up in the mountains.
View of the Indian Ocean from up in the mountains.
A camel walks the streets of Raysut, not following traffic signs.
A random group of guys sitting around in Raysut (about 130 km from Salalah). I interviewed one for my research, though he's not in this picture. The guy in the middle is 90 years old, and spent most of the time I was there cleaning his toenails with a 5-6 inch knife.
