Perched atop a balcony café, Samantha was seen soaking in the panoramic views of sweeping dunes and endless desert horizons. A video clip she shared took followers along the scenic drives that passed palm-lined roads, grand forts, and intricate traditional flooring reflective of the region's cultural design. The property she stayed at featured exteriors made from old-world mud constructions, bamboo roofs, and rustic canopies – all echoing the timeless charm of Arabia – while the interiors were strikingly modern.
The Qasr Al Sarab resort is a sanctuary of seclusion and indulgence. It offers the kind of serenity ideal for someone seeking a pause – a place to reflect, recharge, and simply be. Tucked away in the heart of the Empty Quarter, the world's largest sand desert, the resort stands as an oasis of calm wrapped in opulence. During her stay, Samantha also explored the resort's signature wellness offerings, which are as immersive as they are rejuvenating. From Arabian oud body therapies to desert rose rituals and hammam cleansing sessions, each treatment draws from ancient Middle Eastern traditions, providing spiritual and physical healing in a peaceful desert setting.
The desert resort also offers immersive desert adventures such as sunset desert walks that bathe the dunes in gold, thrilling dune-bashing rides across the sand sea, and serene guided stargazing sessions under the vast night sky. Each of these experiences is thoughtfully designed to deepen one's connection to the desert and its rhythm. Culinary experiences at the resort range from refined indoor feasts to unforgettable alfresco meals. Whether sampling regional tasting menus at Al Falaj or indulging in elevated Bedouin cuisine at Amanie, every meal was a celebration of local flavours and culinary storytelling.

WATCH: Russian Tourist Masters Desi Jugaad Of Road-Crossing In Jaipur, Calls It ‘Mission Complete'
Jaipur: Tourists in the Pink City often come for forts, palaces and food. But for a visitor from Russia, the real adventure began before she even stepped inside a monument. The challenge? Crossing a busy Indian road. The moment unfolded in front of Jaipur's pink sandstone jewel, the Hawa Mahal. Vera Prokofeva was with her friend when she decided to share a skill she had picked up in India, the 'desi' method of making it safely from one side of the street to the other. The result was a video that has now charmed social media. Holding her phone, she turned the scene into a mini tutorial. In the clip, she stands at the roadside with vehicles rushing past. She faces her friend and explains the method in simple steps. 'I will teach you how to cross the road. You need to show them like that. You stop in there, and then down. Like this. See? Just show them, stop and there we are. Mission complete! Successfully!' she says, demonstrating each motion. The 'show them' part refers to the unmistakable Indian gesture, raising a hand towards approaching traffic to signal drivers to slow down or stop. With her palm up, she takes a careful step forward, still looking both ways, then moves across. Her friend follows, mimicking her actions. Both of them laugh as they reach the other side. The entire moment feels like a small victory. On her Instagram post, Prokofeva added a playful caption, which reads, 'The first rule you need to learn in India is to learn how to cross the road.' The video has sparked conversations online, with viewers from across the world recognising the shared thrill and occasional fear of navigating India's busy streets. Indian users chuckled at the accuracy of the gesture. Foreign travellers commented that crossing a road here often feels like a test of courage and timing.

She did not only guide her friend across a street, she initiated her into a small but essential Indian survival skill.
