I am currently running The House, that is now called The Aqaba House, as a bed and breakfast and cultural center. Have a look at http://www.theaqabahouse.com for more information and feel free to mail me with any question! And of course, come and stay with us when you’re in the region!!

Just in your sub-heading you say “Tareq Emtairah built this eco-house to disprove that energy efficient buildings aren’t always prohibitively expensive.” You’ve used a double negative, giving the sentence the opposite meaning. You might want to change disprove to prove OR aren’t to are (just not both!).I hope that somebody, somewhere is collecting all this traditional wisdom regarding “passive” energy efficiency for building in the Levant.
