More of Egypt



Updating on "adventure in Cairo" - been to the pyramids, meet cool expats and partied, been to Alexandria (which I loved) and preparing to go to Sawa - this cool desert safari kinda thing.
Otherwise, all good - i like Cairo for the energy, the nice people and closeness to a lot of amazing places. Would live here, but only if I can stay in Zamalek :-)
Oh, and if you ever go to the pyramids make sure you know how to ride the horse, have all your pockets and bags closed, are in good shape (if the next day you don't want to feel like someone had beaten the hell out of you) and are ready at any time to run like the wind - with or without your consent. Enjoy the pics now. I'm out.

Still in Cairo


Hello again! So I'm still in Cairo. The plan was to stay 10 days, but it got extended to 30 which is not that bad considering that I still haven't seen the Pyramids or too much of Cairo.
But I did get another peak at it for one colleague's birthday - nice food in a local (I would call it) taverna :), shisha and going around shops in Huzein - this very touristic but nice place.
