Syria was simply amazing. Everything about it was exactly the opposite of what I expected. The state department would have you believe that Syria is a country hostile to Americans. As I already mentioned I also expected it to be a much more arid climate.
Both these things proved to be the exact opposite. The people went out of their way to help us and were nothing but nice. And like I said the landscape was composed of lush farmlands.
I really wish I had more time to spend in Damascus. The culture and history here are extremely rich. It was truly enjoyable to spend time in the cities and just interact. In addition to this, he exchange rate was excellent, The food was great, and the city was beautiful. In all honesty I loved everything about Damascus.
