Friday, 23 February, off to Egypt. We will fly out from London Heathrow at 17.25 and arrive in what has been explained to me as ‘the filthiest city in the world’ ; Cairo at 20.45. I am expecting more than filth, I am expecting Cairo to be chaotic, ... Read more >

This is the feeling I had as we careened through the streets of Cairo. The driving style there is similar to Indo, but they don´t even bother putting lines on the highways since they know noone follows them (which i thought was quite efficient). There ... Read more >

Walking Like an Egyptian

Wed, 14 Apr 2010 | By copperowl | Views [750] | Comments [3]

Cool Water, Scorched Earth

Thu, 3 Jul 2008 | By coffeedrop | Views [593]

One word describes Dahab: Paradisal.  And to no surprise, my first intention of only two days here has turned into six, as I have been practically hypnotized by its idyllic, tranquil vibe, and have spent many an hour on pillows by the water side, smoking ... Read more >

Catching a Moment - The Eyes of the Pyramid

Mon, 1 Apr 2013 | By | Views [405] | Scholarship Entry

You would have thought you could count on Cairo being hot, but it was a cool 15 degrees. Cryptic murmur of Egyptian Arabic all round. Walking head down and accompanied front, side and back by the implicit mass of humanity - caps, beards, skirts, sleeves, ... Read more >

#15 Egypt and team dynamics

Tue, 4 Aug 2009 | By ashlee | Views [161]

Egypt! It feels so incredible to wear my hair down, to sit and not be sweating or sticky. It’s definitely weird to look around and only see orange, though. Sand, sun, buildings, there’s no getting away from it. Dust and dirt everywhere. The driving ... Read more >
