"The archaeological expedition to Jordan was absolutely life-changing. Dr. Martinez's expertise brought Petra to life in ways I never imagined. Being able to participate in the actual excavation work and handle 2,000-year-old artifacts was incredible. This wasn't just tourismโ€”it was true discovery."
