Top 10 Things I Learned in Egypt


















1. toilet paper is precious and should be treated as gold
2. sleeping trains= hell
3. bed bugs really do exist
4. soccer is the universal language
5. yes you can sweat out of every part of your body
6. i have "very beautiful eyes" and am worth too many camels to count
7. shoosday is not a holiday but in fact is "tuesday" (also don't ask what shoosday is, apparently you're being offensive because you just basically said-um your English is terrible and I can't understand you
8. no pasta does not move on its own- if you notice your food moving you probably have flying insects on your plate-that's where you can get a source of protein though
9. there is an egyptian lady gaga (I watched the international music video channel in our hotel)
10. besides the tough environment, people and food the people of egypt are a very kind and loving people and I learned this through the most beautiful experience with a girl named Mina

  1. WOW Amanda... how amazing. I'm so glad that you are able to put up some pictures. We are enjoying reading about your adventures and it looks like you are taking advantage of everything that your trip has to offer!

    P.S. Would it still be a possibility to come visit you? We are planning our summer, and we thought you might want some visitors :)
