I went one time all inclusive and i met my Egyptian husband. After one year a bought a appartement with beach, pool. The prices are amazing I could never have so much as in Belgium. I started to help tourist to buy property and as a designer artist I make the properties ready to rent or to enjoy.
Now two years later I have a whole team taking care for a dream apartment for all wishes.
I have 14 years of health problems on my muscles and because of the food and the sun I have almost no problems.
It’s a blessing and I can afford this.
I live at Belgium and I can tell you, financial suffering is real.
Because of Hurghada I have a future 🙏🏻

I like your look with the scarf in this video!

[@Vlad81Boce]

It’s easy to walk off the map with a local fellow 😉

Best video on Hurghada. How much did you pay for your room and how much did you tip him? Would be great to know and very helpful. Love that he spent the whole day with you and rightly proud. Will be going soon. Flight already booked. Thanks

I've been to Hurghada every year since 2012. I love old town and even the back streets up at Sakkala. You only have to move one street away from the beach and hotels and there are no tourists or pushy street vendors. I don't know why people insist on walking up and down Sheraton road and having to say no to a fake Rolex or leather belt every 20 paces, and then they go home and tell everyone how pushy everyone is as if they couldn't have just avoided it by being brave enough to venture away from the tourist areas.
If you go round the right side of Al Mina mosque, there are steps up to the roof, and you can look down on the people praying. You're not supposed to, but if anyone sees you, they'll just ask you to go back down.

Any repeat visitor has 3 reasons!. Num 1, wants to take advantage of the young women. Num 2 drugs. Num 3 your a pedophile.
Thats it! I been going all my life, don't try trick me.

[@SHAWESH04]

I hope you felt happy in Hurghada, my city

[@troelalul]

NIce mate. How are the local bars?

[@importedmusic]

Love how this guy just doesnt give a sh1t lol

[@Basha1WB]

You got ripped off on those strawberries they should have cost between 15-20EGY. They will always try foreigners 😡

[@Mero_8589]

Yeah , maybe they spent extra 5~10 pounds🥲

[@Alison-LoveAndUnity]

True but as a European tourist you know that's going to happen and majority of us can afford to pay a little bit more than a local price. In a poorer country I don't mind. Better give local traders your money than spend it all in corporate business 👍

[@Basha1WB]

@@Alison-LoveAndUnity just because you have more it does not entitle them to take more this is a problem. Plus this mindset hurts other tourists that may not have money as you do and it sets the bar for the locals to rob people, this is never okay. Safe travels.

[@noone-nothing989]

It might differ from place to another still within the same average … don’t make drama to show of

[@amroabdalwhab9594]

wrong. I am Egyptian and I tell you that the prices the paid are the same prices we pay as Egyptians. The price of a kilo of strawberries now is 35 EGP. Do not make accusations against people without verifying the truth of your words. We know that there are a few of us who do these actions, but not everyone. Finally, if you do not like the country, do not come to visit it.

[@FlakeyandCherryPlayzYT]

The Real Hurghada is cheap, cultural and traditional but your still not seeing some of the real Hurghada, the places where the slums are and refugees, the conditions and more

[@Kaelinbauu]

“Mama Africa” 😂😂😂

[@Mero_8589]

The name got me too😂😂😂😂

[@claudiamanta1943]

Why do you laugh? I think it’s beautiful.

[@vintageradioman]

Please be safe guys I heard they scam tourists.

[@monjiaitaly]

There are scam artists everywhere. Maybe more in Egypt :) just say Laa shoukran and walk away, do not engage.

[@Essbess83]

They do!!! And all looking for marriage scams

[@Essbess83]

The only scammers are the people who come to take advantage of the women and CHILDREN! Yes pedos!

[@kenjaev_330]
