Sounds like Turkey beats Jordan hands down on hospitality. The only Eid greetings we received from our neighbors this year were from the Christian ones, who personally came in to congratulate us, drink coffee, and have some chocolate. I am so excited about your new adventures. I love your descriptions. Sounds like Turkey beats Jordan hands down on hospitality.
