A Journey of Discovery and Transformation

By Asha Dahya

In her captivating memoir, Between the Desert and the Deep Blue Sea, travel writer Asha Dahya embarks on a journey across the Middle East, North Africa, and Southeast Asia. Driven by a desire to explore the unknown and push the boundaries of her comfort zone, she immerses herself in diverse cultures, encounters ancient ruins, and engages in thought-provoking experiences that challenge her worldview and lead her to profound personal growth.

From the bustling souks of Marrakech to the serene temples of Angkor Wat, Asha encounters a kaleidoscope of human experiences. She learns the art of falconry from Bedouin nomads in the United Arab Emirates, witnesses the vibrant colors of Holi in India, and treks through the lush rainforests of Borneo. Along the way, she grapples with her own preconceptions, explores her spirituality, and discovers the beauty of embracing the unknown.

Written with vivid prose and a keen eye for detail, Between the Desert and the Deep Blue Sea is a captivating read that will transport you to distant lands and inspire you to reflect on your own life journey. It is a testament to the transformative power of travel and a reminder that the greatest adventures are often found when we step outside our comfort zones and embrace the unknown.
