We had planned to go to Jerash, an ancient Roman city full of columns, arches, and temples. Jerash is a little more than 40 kilometers north of Amman. We found out that snow and ice had shut the roads down, so we decided to stay in Amman. We needed to catch up on work, and because of how unprepared we realized we are for colder weather in the Mediterranean and Southern Europe in the winter… we started thinking about changing up our entire route of the trip. I know, we’re crazy. But honestly, being able to change it up and adjust infuses a whole lot of excitement into an already amazing adventure. While we spread out our calendars and notes, the Egyptian and Jordanian waitstaff taught us how to make Turkish coffee at the very atmospheric Jafra Cafe.
