Travel : Oman - Dhows, Turtles and the High Seas

Join Tilo as we uncover the real Oman. The name may conjure up images of mysterious Arabia and ideas of a country being mainly desert and a bit of coastline. And how wrong you would be: Oman is a fascinating and surprisingly varied place that holds many interesting subjects to talk about. One such subject is how the humble dhow has made an impact on history, and why Oman is such a turtle magnet to this day.
