Barefooted in the Sinai desert...

Barefooted in the Sinaï desert. 
...

Calling oneself a barefooter implies that being barefoot is a voluntary choice 

(as opposed to, for example, not being able to afford shoes), 

or whenever use of footwear is decided to be unnecessary. 

Reasons for choosing to go barefoot include the sensation of one’s feet in direct contact with the ground, 

and to confirm many perceived spiritual or natural health benefits one may experience.

It feels good, standing barefooted in the desert,
linking mother Earth to the sky!
...

...
 Footprint in the warm and soft sand!
...

...

Mhhh!
I must confess... sitting barefooted on a camel feels good too!

...

What about experiencing it yourself, next autumn?
