Deserts are often associated with places that are barren, hot and inhospitable to human life. However, who would have thought that exploring the desert could be such a fun and challenging experience. Here is the story If I were for 3 days in the desert :

• The first day i will start my journey in the desert by riding the jeep that i rented. I set out from early in the morning and crossed the rugged and rocky desert. Until finally,I arrived at the top of the hill after several hours of travel, From there,i could see a stunning view. The desert stretches as far as the eye can see, dotted with impressive sand dunes.
  After enjoying the scenery, i will continue my journey to my camp location. After resting for a while, I prepared my gear to face the cold desert night.

• The second day I decided to hike one of the dunes. Exploring the sand dunes is not as easy as imagined, because the ground is slippery and constantly moving makes my steps slow and tiring. But when I got to the top, the effort I put in was well worth it. From the top of the hill, I could see a different desert environment from what I saw on the first day. The desert that seemed vast and deserted on the first day, now looks closer and feels more alive.

• On the third day i decided to explore a hidden cave in the middle of the desert,the journey to the cave is quite challenging because you have to walk through steep valleys and slippery ground. however by the time I arrived at the cave all tiredness was gone.

The cave looks very mystical and looks like it is hidden from the outside world. Inside the cave there are works of art made by desert natives. The artwork looks very ancient but it looks beautiful with the colors that are still clearly visible.

After I finished exploring the cave, I returned to the camp and prepared myself to return to the city.

I have no desire to visit deserted places or deserts, although deserts have unique beauty and challenges, and can be very rewarding experiences to explore.

Deserts are harsh and difficult environments to live in,life in the desert is highly dependent on factors such as water and weather. despite this the desert remains home to many types of animals and plants that have adapted to the dry and hot environment.

Some of the animals that live in the desert include lizards, snakes, owls, insects, and several types of mammals such as camels and wild cats. plants that can be found in the desert include cacti,baobab trees and orange trees.

The natives of desert areas such as the Sahara have long adapted to the harsh environment and have become skilled at exploiting the available resources,they have a way of life that is different from humans in other areas and still maintain their unique traditions and culture to this day.

Although life in the desert can be tough there is a beauty and charm to this dry and arid environment. What's more, there is much to be learned from life in the desert, such as courage, modesty, and resilience.
