Nada Altaji
Growing up I was eager to learn spoken languages other than my mother tongue; Arabic, and English which I speak fluently. I learned French at school and then got my Bachelor's degree in Spanish and English Language & Literature. There are many reasons why I chose to study languages, one of which was to be able to connect with more people around the world and discover different cultures.
My passion for languages and travel never stopped growing and so I started working at Amani Tours in Amman back in 2017, and as someone who has had the privilege to travel to many places at a young age; I consider it a great opportunity to be able to share my experience with other travel enthusiasts like myself.

How did you get involved in travel?
"There's an Asian proverb that says : "It's better to see something once, than to hear about it a thousand times", and the first time I read this it hit me hard as I completely agree. I have been always been passionate about traveling , visiting & exploring new places, ever since I was a kid.
I used to travel with my parents a lot as a child and in my early teen years ; I started traveling alone, and growing up my enthusiasm towards traveling never stopped , on the contrary; it has only gotten bigger. I just love being introduced to new cultures , traditions , cuisines & people, and traveling is the way to do so.
The opportunity to be able to share this passion with other travel enthusiasts is just great, and I only want to share the most of Jordan's beauty with other travelers.
"
Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.
"I have travelled to many places over the years, and I have to say that one of the most memorable trips I have ever taken was when I went to Cyprus. I started the trip on my own, but I met up with friends later on, and also ended up meeting new people.
The trip definitely exceeded my expectations, I did not expect that much beauty and serenity in one place! While there, I visited countless beaches, engaged with local people and tried out delicious foods, some of which was the island's traditional dishes. The best parts were discovered off the beaten track; places where wild donkeys wandered around, and where I found random bakeries in the most unexpected places, and boy they made some of the best bread I have ever had.
I do believe there are hidden treasures wherever you go, so seize the chance and go after them, you won't regret it!
