A Strange Meeting In The Desert

Passion for photography and the desert and a fantastic story told in front of a fire!

A Strange Meeting In The Desert

I use to go running in the desert. Both for training and competitions This time, I decided to go to Al Qudra to test some gear I received. After parking my car at the Last Exit, I started running crossing through desert along the cycling path.

Almost 30 minutes after the sunset, I could see not too far from me a 4x4 on the top of a dune. A man was alone up there near to the car, lighting a fire. Intrigued, I kept on going in that direction, till I reached him and incredibly he was Italian too! Two Italians, and a strange meeting in the desert of Dubai. He offered me some water, we started talking and he told me he never drove a 4x4 before moving to the UAE so I grabbed hold of the opportunity and proposed that interview him... and here we are!

Nico de Corato (NdC): Luca, who are you and why you are here alone in the middle of the desert?

Luca Lombardi (LL): Born in Rome, I moved to Sanremo [Liguria, Italy] where I lived for 20 years and where all my friends still live. I’m a professional photographer and I’m here in the UAE because I love the desert.

NdC: How did you discover the desert?

7 Emirates Run

My name is Toni Metcalfe I am a mum of three children and I also have a passion for running. Not just any running but Ultra running. An Ultra run is defined by any distance over a marathon (42.2kms) but is usually much longer and on mountainous terrain. My last race was 100 miles long and across the south of England countryside.​​​​​​​
