Tayler along with two guides takes off across the Sahara Desert. I can add this trip to the list of trips I will never take. Worst of all was the picture Tayler gives of his stop in the home of a Muslim saint; flies covering the food...children with snotty noses...the smell of animal dung coming from the room next door...green meat...men picking their noses while they ate...the intense desert heat....In every village Tayler stopped, locals told him he was the first tourist they'd met. Mmmm...big surprise.
