MAYA.
As we made our way out of the ooms, the tour guide, a sprightly woman named Leila, met us in the hotel lobby, her warm smile radiating excitement.
“Welcome, everyone! I hope you’re ready for a day filled with adventure!” she announced, her enthusiasm infectious. As we all nodded, I could feel the energy in the air. We were definitely looking forward to exploring the city.
We hopped onto a bright blue tour bus decorated with cheeky sunshines and swaying palm trees. As we settled into our seats, with Andrew beside me and Min in front of us. He immediately joked about how he hoped the seats were more comfortable than his last date—cue laughter and eye rolls all around. He's such a princess I tell you!
From the other end of the bus, I noticed Hossein leaning forward, trying to catch Leila’s attention, and I half expected him to ask for her life story before we even left the parking lot. He's that kind of person.
