However, it would be through my school and I would want to be there for a semester. I do not see though, why I wouldn't be able to at least travel to the other places, let alone go there later on. Thanks for the interesting point. Cheers, Jared Good point.

Why not do all three? Hey, Jared –

Jordan, Syria and Yemen are all fascinating places to learn Arabic. Why not do all three?

I'll be receiving my first lessons in Arabic this fall at the University of Iowa. I plan to study abroad next year, my sophmore year. I had decided to opt out of going to Egypt and Morocco as those were two very common destinations. I had met some Jordanians and was very interested in going to Jordan. Perhaps you can shed some light on that. However, after reading your article and watching, I want to say, Anthony Bourdain's: No Reservations about Yemen I am really tempted to go there. Thanks again for sharing! Thanks so much for sharing!

That said, a trip to Sana'a isn't the same as a dash of the Orient in Dubai. While living and working there I saw plenty of people arrive with wide eyes only to get back on a plane the next week. The place is different, and therein lies its beauty. Look before you leap, and look well, not only at the destination by at yourself. Sana'a is an amazing city, all the writer describes and more.

A few even got jobs with NGO's after their Arabic was functional.
