Jordan 2011

During october 2011 I participated as research scientist responsible for geophysical investigations in the Edom Lowlands Regional Archaeological Project (ELRAP) of UC San Diego.

This 3-week period was a fantastic experience in a rocky desert...
...living as a bedouine as the rest of the "shebab" (muchachos)...
...Dead Sea...
... and Petra (what a place!)

Looking forward to coming back next year!
"yal-la, yal-la"!

Mongolia 2011: time for being patient


Yes, coming back to Mongolia in few hours!
This year less time but more ambition (Albert's words 2 weeks ago). Let's see what we are able to achieve this year. We'll bring new geophysical equipment and more technology with the aim of improving last year's results. But to be honest, much of our success depends on the work of the Mongolian team. Bano, bano, bano!!
