I remember ...

What it is like in Egypt :

- To be driving in the street, fearing for your life, brushing up against another few cars but realizing this in the norm.
- Catching a train in the normal car (as opposed to the female car) and being the centre of everyone's focus.
- Getting dust on everything.
- Seeing the AMAZING view of the pyramids, first thing in the morning before the pollution hits the air.
- Inhaling your first shisha which goes right to the head and wondering why do you feel dizzy.
- Seeing friends from long ago and knowing part of you belongs here.
- Having no trouble at all stopping a cab, or 6-7 for that matter.
- Seeing people who rely on their mobile phones as their life line.
- Food which is so cheap (50 piasters - less then 10 cents) but it also so good !
- The BEST fruit and vegetables everywhere.
- The National Office :) Too many memories of a year gone by I don't even know where to start !!!

Loving it, live from Cairo.
