Wow, I still can't believe it. My dream came true. I got to visit the mysterious Socotra Island in Yemen: it's a prehistoric landscape, filled with numerous endemic species of trees and animals you can only find here and nowhere else on Earth. Because of its remoteness, and then because of the conflict in Yemen, Socotra has been off-limits to the vast majority of tourists. It's rising again now 💛 Thank you, Welcome to Socotra for being my perfect hosts and guides to this unforgettable island. |

Socotra is hands-down one of the most epic places I've been to. On my recent trip to this Yemeni island with Welcome to Socotra, I spent an unforgettable 2 weeks camping, hiking, swimming and exploring. In Socotra, on a remote beach, I met a modern-day Robinson Crusoe. This man lives alone, isolated from the rest of the world, and I want to tell you about his life.
