A proposito di questo titolo
Drift off with some boring geography for sleep as we float to the Socotra Archipelago, a remote corner of the Arabian Sea famous for surreal landscapes and the otherworldly dragon blood tree. In true Sleepless Geographer style, we keep it slow, calm, and quietly fascinating, focusing on what makes Socotra one of the weirdest places on Earth.
We will explore the geology, climate, and extreme environments that shaped these islands, from limestone plateaus and coastal dunes to rugged mountains and hidden caves. Along the way, you will hear gentle explanations of plate tectonics, erosion, and isolation, plus a few more strange geographic wonders that make perfect background listening for relaxation, study, or sleep.
