Today I had the great opportunity do visit a Bedouin village. Even if the people inside the village are used to tourists who are running around with their photocamaras and mobiles is it a compleatly non touristic place. I guess, for kids it is the paradise, because there is nothing. :D
A special Thank You goes to www.sinai-safari.com. They support my projekt and give me the change to have a look so deep in their culture.
In Dahab we have almost no street names. If we want to explain where we are living we are saying: in the road where shop XY is, at the corner with the three palm trees. Knock at the black door. This is possible for friends, but not for the post office. So you have to choose a known place for the mail delivery or you...
It is the trueth: Many of you asked me, if it is easy to get money in Egypt. Of course, it is. If you work with cash or with a creditcard: both works at the ATMs in Dahab (and the rest of Egypt).
During Ramadan the people are fasting from Sunrise to sunset. Then is it good to get an real energy-dring. Om Ahmed is making some of this drings at her place and sells them before sunset. With the money she is buying her kids new clothes for Aid - the feast at end of Ramadan. Her husband died 4 years ago and now...
The last days I tried to stay inside as much as possible - or jump into the see. It is just to hot. Over 40°C and this since at least a week. And in Germany right now is a lot of rain an just 20°C. How is that happened? It's late May already. Anyway...I just need to cool me down.
Why? Because it is freezing cold in Egypt. In Sinai. And in the January. The Tempreture goes down to 14 degreese and less at some days. And when there is wind, it feels even colder. In Egypt it is not comon to have a heater in your room. So imagine: In Germany we start to heat up our roomes, when the temperature is...
I am sorry for the sound, but it was horrible loud! You can't imagine :) But beside it was loud it was a great experience. Yes, this was a High Budget wedding. With an amazing buffet, any kind of drinks and an Nobel prize winner in heart transplant: Magdi Yacoub, who is also a Sir of the Royal Family UK....
Cairo is one of the loudest and most stressfull cities. In my optinion. I mean: There is traffic everywhere! And the pollution is horrible. Good that there is one place, where everything is quite and you can just relax: On the Nile in Cairo!
I had the great opportunity to film the new Hospital of Dahab before it gets open. The Dahab Medical care Hospital has a lot of specializations. So if something bad is happend, here are now a lot of good hands!
It was so nice to go there. To be honest, I am not often out just for a walk. It was something, what I missed the last month. Because I love to hike. Anyway, now I found something and maybe we see us there again. Now I am back to work.
