By Imen, Tunisia "I took these photos in the lovely Medina of Tunis, my favorite place in the city. In these photos, you can see a young Tunisian guy who is working hard at a traditional job, which he inherited from his father. He’s doing it with love and passion, and he was very welcoming and happy to help me complete my homework photo essay. I tried to implement the 5 shot sequence rules (big wide establish, point of view, big close up, big close up object, and the creative shot)." . . . . . #tunis #tunisia #discovertheregion

Notre Dame De Sion n'y Clody, Israel “This land is a land of peoples who each have their own memories. As a Christian who is part of a community with a living presence here of 140 years, we too, have a memory as a community. A community of sisters who have served the Arab community who had lived here in this village, and then, the Jewish community who came after the establishment of the State of Israel.” But memories give rise to future hopes. Writing to the sisters in the light of his long experience in the Holy Land, Alphonse Ratisbonne, the founder of the NOTRE DAME DE SION, expressed – in the language of his time – his hope and also his respect for people and their distinctive identity, in these words: “We need to enlarge our hearts…and make no distinction between Latin Catholics and Greek Orthodox, between Muslim and Jew…but to embrace all in love.” Such words still have meaning in our day and if the realization of such a program seems impossible, let us remember that this land is a land where the impossible happens. Let us never lose hope! . . . . . #photoessay #inspiration #peace #coexistence #church #holyland

Photo Essay by Rowan, Palestine: "These are pictures of a city that is frequently mentioned on the news, often sad news, wars, siege, power and water cuts... This is my beautiful city of Gaza, part of the state of Palestine, with an area of 360 square kilometers, with a population of approximately 2 million. I am part of this city, and it is part of me." #gaza #gazacity #mena #photoessay #photography #discovertheregion

Buildings also could speak and tell people's stories, history, lifestyle, visions, struggles, hopes and aspirations. During my recent travels in my country, Morocco, I discovered the essence of my magnificent culture and civilization by looking at the small details in buildings which witness a tremendous history. Each building in the following photos has so many stories to share and a deeply rooted history. Locations: 1st and 2nd photos: The small city of Tinghir, Oriental Atlas. 3rd photo: Ouarzazat city, South east desert of the kingdom. 4th photo: High Atlas mountains. 5th photo: The small bue city Chefchaouen, Rif mountains. 6th photo: the Koutoubia mosque in the old medina of Marrakech. . . . . . #discovertheregion #thinkactyala #morocco #photography #photoessay
