The fireflies dancing by the banks of the pond during sunset. The vibrant green of the trees after a rainstorm. The single street lamp illuminated on the eve of a snowy day. The world is so magical, isn’t it?
All aboard the Caravan where your ticket will take you on a journey to Allah by discovering the fantastical-ness of life.
Each journey (“Tale”) is a soul-seeking, adventure curated in the form of a story with immersion into the history, culture, spiritual practices, and nature of the land.
The “Caravan” refers to our group of travelers (Companions) and “Tale” represents each Companion’s life story but is also used to refer to the name of each trip/event that is designed to follow a story-format. A “Tale” is defined as a story that is recounted imaginatively. We want our Companions to return home after their magical travels to look at life with a lens of intrigue, imagination and potential.
We need the commitment from you to be open to participation and introspection. The Caravan is only as good as the participation of its Companions!
