Anyone who claims that they can’t find bargain shopping in Cairo is delusional. First of all, we Egyptians love a good bargain; we may not have created the concept of sales and discounts, but we very well could have. Just take a look at any discount store around the world (Primark, Dollar Store, Forever 21), and you may find several of us arguing loudly over the Sale of the Day rack.

The only thing better than having fun is having fun for free! If you’re low on cash but looking for a good time; fret not. As long as you’ve got some time to spare, we’ve got ten ways to maximize your fun intake, absolutely free of charge.

Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature,
nor do the children of men as a whole experience it.

in the presence of fate is strength undefeatable.

Are a million thoughts racing through your brain telling you, ‘gotta do this, gotta do that, gotta do, gotta do!’ Do you feel your mind is racing, does there seems to be no end to the physical and emotional tasks you are setting yourself? Everything becomes confused; you don’t know where to start to eliminate all the rubbish going around in your head.

One of the most breathtaking experiences to have in this city is to witness the amazing Sufi dancers perform in the heart of Islamic Cairo. Without sounding clichéd, it really is a feast for the senses, and will have you gazing in amazement at how the musicians' fingers move so fast, and how the twirlers don’t drop down in a dizzied frenzy.

It’s that time of year when people travel to new places. If you are stuck in Sharm, can’t make it back to Europe, why not do a tour of Egypt’s top 10:

1.) Pyramids of Giza
There is nothing more mysterious, and more worthy of seeing in Egypt than the esteemed Great Pyramids of Giza. These are the pyramids of Khufu, Kafhre, and Menkaura. These perfectly shaped structures leaves everyone in awe and in wonder about how exactly they were made, considering that the ancient Egyptians had no advanced technology to work with.

Isn’t the complex, programming and planning of a wedding amazing?
The mind boggles, it takes as much energy and foresight as starting up an International Company.
It could be simplified by two people standing in a garden or on top of a mountain, holding hands and saying the words, “I do, ‘till death do us part.”
The majority of weddings take a year to organise and a full, healthy bank balance to suffer a terminal illness.
