Out of all of the countries I've been to, Iraq (& Lebanon) have the friendliest people. Many people invited me to their home. So many strangers refused to let me pay for juice or food because I was a guest in their country. I was blown away by the hospitality! #LFC #YNWA #travel

I still can't believe I traveled solo to Iraq! I would rather live a life of saying "I can't believe I did that" rather than not doing it! A big thanks to @BilWeekend and @Iraqlfc for these incredible moments! #TravelTuesday #Baghdad #travel #LFC #YNWA

The Ziggurat of Ur is so ancient that this city was mentioned in the Bible & it's the birthplace of Prophet Abraham. I went here in Iraq with my guide from @BilWeekend & learned that Pope Francis held an inter-faith ceremony here in 2021. Iraq is incredible! #travel #LFC #YNWA

Walking up a massive ancient Sumerian temple at sunset. The Ziggurat of Ur in Iraq is believed to be the birthplace of Prophet Abraham! My guide from @BilWeekend took me here. I also had a local guide from the area who is an expert archeologist for the site! #travel #wanderlust

Cruising through the Mesopotamian Marshes in Southern Iraq! The people who live here now in the marshes are the descendants of the ancient Sumarians, Babylonians, & the Ur civilizations. One guy said he loves my Mo Salah shirt. 😆 #travel #LFC #YNWA
