A landscape photograph taken from a high vantage point, looking across a wide mountain valley at the ancient Orbelian (Selim) Caravanserai in Armenia. The stone caravanserai building, with its distinctive rust-colored corbelled roof, is in the mid-foreground on the right, built into the side of a grassy hill. It is composed of weather-beaten, textured stone blocks, and a small, loose stone wall is in the foreground nearby. To the left of the building, a dirt track and a few small structures are visible. A winding road is carved into the side of the larger hill that rises steeply behind the caravanserai. In the distance, a massive range of mountains dominates the horizon, their high peaks covered in snow. Above it all is a heavy, dramatic sky filled with dark, textured rain clouds, creating a somber yet epic atmosphere. The lighting is diffused and moody, with a touch of highlight on the peaks and the building.

In the tea fields of Munnar, India

Tamil woman working in Munnar

After visiting #TamilNadu, I headed to #Munnar, where I spent a few days exploring the surrounding area.

I really liked it, in some ways it reminded me of Sri Lanka, with its endless tea plantations and many Tamil workers in the fields.

As U.S. & Israel DESTROY the #CradleOfCivilization, its people, & the archaeological history of humanity, it’s disturbing how INCURIOUS Americans are about our shared past.

Take the #SilkRoad. In China, it was known as the #GlassRoad b/c of coveted #PersianGlass.

Huge beach in Chennai full of people and garbage

Cows and garbage everywhere

After #SriLanka I landed in #Chennai, #India. And I’m glad I was in Colombo before. It made the transition much softer. Thanks to that, I didn't experience the famous "culture shock" that everyone talks about.

But Chennai hits hard. #silkroad #travelblogger
