At this time 3 years ago, I was in Libya. There are too many countries in the world with Asian names, so it is easy to confuse, and without a good memory you have no idea where Libya is.
First of all, let's take a look at Libya, once a rich oily country, and now surrounded by war, the people are not happy. Libya is bordered by the Mediterranean Sea in the north, Egypt to the east and Algeria to the west. Libya is rich in oil resources and could have lived a carefree life by selling oil, but the war brought it to an abrupt end.
When I went to Libya, there was still civil unrest, because the skirmish between the two parties for power was not over. Occasional gunshots are heard, bullets are occasionally seen, and abandoned bombs are occasionally seen on the side of the road.
When I went to Libya, I knew that there would be some insecurity, but thinking that there were Chinese who worked there, I thought that I would not be afraid and could make money to travel to new countries. It wasn't until the AK47 gun rang in my ear and I saw bullet casings all over the ground that you would see that the danger was suddenly approaching.
The nutritional value of dates is very high, and they are cultivated in the Middle East and North Africa for generations, and are cultivated in many Arab countries. In Libya, we have not seen large-scale cultivation, which is related to stable economic conditions, the country will have wars, who can safely grow dates?
It is said that in the past, when the Arabs fought, they would carry dates with them, and the sun-dried dates were easy to store and could be eaten wherever they went. Dates are high in sugar and can provide energy to the body.
Dates can be eaten from the tree, and the taste of cleaning is crunchy, and the sweet taste is easy to stop. Sun-dried dates are a bit like dates sold in supermarkets, if you think it is too sweet to make porridge, you can put a few, boiled out of the porridge sticky aroma dense.
The price of dates is not expensive in Libya, because it is the food that ordinary people need, which is about a few yuan a catty, and I have forgotten the specific price after a long time.
It has been 3 years since I stepped on the plane that left Tripoli that night, and perhaps I can only go to Libya once in this lifetime, but fortunately there are still precious memories left in my heart. Maybe that's what travel is about, travel allows you to see that every country has good people, travel allows you to see that every country has its own shortcomings, and travel can let you know that the wandering heart should have a place to live.
Libyan dates are ripe, and I may never be able to eat Libyan dates anymore, Libyan dates are ripe, can the people there live and work in peace? The dates in Libya are ripe, but where am I?
