This idea, I owe it to some
friends who initiated a blog and shared their travel experiences with everyone,
an unselfish mean to say how you feel as you go and offer a chance to family
and friends to feel as close to you and your mind as possible.
I wish I had done it when we
arrived in Istanbul and for the four years after, as the old Constantinople
really grew in on me; the most beautiful city I have ever seen, where I feel
the most at home. But better late than later, I shall start in the land of
pharaohs, in these hard, yet decisive times for Egypt and its people.
I feel, as a preamble, I have to
clarify our sanity. Before coming, and especially after the events that
happened on Wednesday the 13th, we were assailed by questions (with good and
kind intentions we know), regarding our state of mind and questioning our
decision about going to Egypt in these troubled times. All I can say is two
things : I am committed to a school, kids and don’t like to give up, but most
importantly, we deemed and still hope that we are right in assuming that things
will be fine and if not, the school will take good care of us.
It is of course, with a big knot
in our hearts that we landed, hoping we did the right thing, hoping everything
would indeed be fine.
