Off the Beaten Path (2015) : 5x4

Today we travel to Oman, located in the southeastern part of the Arabian Peninsula, along the Arabian Sea and the Gulf of Oman. It borders the United Arab Emirates, Yemen, and Saudi Arabia. The country has around three million people, with Arabs forming the majority, alongside communities from South Asia and Africa. Most residents are Muslim. Oman is a monarchy led by a modernizing Sultan, with Arabic as the official language, though English is widely spoken. The landscape ranges from humid coastal areas to hot, dry desert interiors. It was this warm climate and unique setting that drew Zuzana, a marketing manager from Poprad, eight years ago. She was so captivated by Oman that she decided to make it her permanent home.
