Warm people, breathtaking country, lots of self-reflection...  — 2 months ago

Worth doing!

Is what I came away with after 14 days there in the middle of January. You can’t go somewhere as different from your culture as Egypt without having a mirror held up to your beliefs, your assumptions, your sense of identity… even your religion. Someday that I feel like going back, I’d like for it to be staying with someone who lives there and traveling the full extent of the Nile by land… But I can’t recommend this experience enough.

Don't look now, but...  — 5 months ago

Worth doing!

... the possibility of going just sort of fell into my lap. I hemmed and hawed and realized I had no reason to, and booked the trip! 15 days there, coming up in January! Scared and excited all at once! This was one of the first goals I put on 43Things, didn’t really do anything with it other than feeling good that people were cheering the goal, and look ma, I’m goin’! :-)

I'm going!!  — 7 months ago

I finally put money down on the trip to Egypt I’ve been wanting to take. Am doing freelance work specifically to pay for it. April will come all too soon. The hard part will be deciding which places to see and which to miss. I’ll have 20 days! Thanks to the universe.

Egypt  — 1 year ago

I have always been fascinated by Egypt and would love to see the pyramids.

And the pyramids await for me..  — 1 year ago

..ain’t that cool?

I’ve always wanted to go to Egypt ever since I was in fifth grade, mucho thanx to “The Mummies Alive” animation series that nurtured my looove for the land of the pharaohs. And the pull seems stronger every year that’s why I’ve decided to finally make my dream come true. Who knows? I just might meet my destiny here..

Wish me luck!

P.S. I wanna be happy there just like how happy I am in Portofino (see pic)...

According to Deepak Chopra...  — 1 year ago

Worth doing!

intention and attention are all you need to realize a goal. My Western conditioning still holds onto the belief in effort and my mind tries to reconcile itself with both opposite fields. My attention is now turned to the fact that my beloved already has a plan and a structure to go to Egypt next year. Now all I have to do is to stay attentive for a way to accompany her… :-)

I am currently living in Alexandrie  — 1 year ago

Not worth it!

I am not at Madinati Nasr (the town of rescue) (Cairo).

Some places are beautiful, but there are a lot of places I don’t like because it’s too dirty.

lynnw2nn is going to the zoo, yea!!!!

Does Virtual Count??  — 1 year ago

Ok, so I’ve always been fascinated by Egypt, from the great pyramids to all the legends of curses. So of course it always made me curious as to the truth. Grandmama always swore that the curse was very very real, and that someone she personally knew was affected by it.
I just wanna go and see the place, and walk in a place that had writing and all that we know now, so long ago, long enough ago to of been forgotten.

My first trip to beautiful Egypt!!  — 1 year ago

I went to Egypt 2 years ago and i stayed there for 14 months!!
It was AMAZING!! I met so many egyptians and foreigners, worked in an Egyptian company and travelled a lot all over Egypt!!

Now that i came back home, i can say that these 14 months were the best in my life!
Worth doing 1000%!!!
I would definitely go back again!! in fact i will…next summer!!
What if men bother you by saying 3asal or whatever! You just don’t pay attention!!

my first trip out of the US...  — 1 year ago

Worth doing!

...because i don’t do things the easy way like most people (in fact, at 33, i STILL haven’t “backpacked around europe”, lol…)

yes, worth it – i’d go back in a heartbeat if i could – given the opportunity to travel with what i know now after years of experience…
