Petra, Jordan; Rock-cut Architecture

One of the world’s most visually stunning archaeological sites, Petra (meaning ‘the rock’ in Greek) is an abandoned necropolis of temples and tombs cut into towering cliffs of red, pink and orange sandstone.

Hustle Tunng

So I received this song from my roommate and I just completely fell in love. Tunng’s “Hustle” is completely charming in sound, beat, and lyrics. It’s juvenile care free feel emanates from it’s lyrics and the songs unique beat. Listen to this and let your summer adventures be led with this whimsical musical treasure.
