The Bedu of Northern Jordan

Beautiful #Jordanian #bedouin woman who has moved to #ashrafiya in #mafraq . She lives in this colourful tent with her family. Her son is unemployed despite the fact that there are #syrian #refugees working in the nearby tomato fields.

According to the son tomato picking is back-breaking work that shortens a man's life span. Ironically they believe it is ok for their 2 sisters to pick tomatoes.

She was happy for me to take her photo although she hates her #tattoos and wants to have them removed. #nomads #life #nomad #bedouin #photojournalism #jordan
