Victoria Picco

There is something about the roads, the changing landscapes, and the stories that intersect that makes me feel alive. I found in writing a way to extend those journeys, to relive them, to share them with others. I have been writing for over five years, and it has always been a way to view the world with greater attention. To pause on the details, the emotions that places awaken, in what doesn’t always show up in travel guides.

Musandam: Between Fjords and Fortresses

Separated from the rest of Oman by the United Arab Emirates and surrounded by the crystal-clear waters of the Gulf of Oman and the Persian Gulf, the Musandam Peninsula juts dramatically into the Strait of Hormuz—a wild, isolated corner unlike anywhere else in the region.
