You know what? The cashier guy was smiling because you spelled the words as an Egyptian and we don't expect foreign to speak like that, so Don't worry you're doing great ❤️😅
I went here with my husband last week because of your video. Im going to miss fresh juice like this when i go back to the States. Thanks again for the awesome content! I check for your videos daily🤗
I so miss the fresh juices. Absolutely loved the mango juice. The footage of the traffic is very typical of Cairo: it’s free-for-all insanity of vehicles then suddenly pedestrians are casually walking across the street. Somehow it all works. Shukran for the video.
Giselle! What amazing videos you posted. It helped to rekindle my interest in old Egypt. Probably I will visit again, but not yet! The weather is to hot right now. Many thanks!!
Thank you for making this video. I love fresh juices which is hard to get in US, without costing an arm and a leg. I'll be sure to indulge when I get there :)
I agree, the amount they charge in the US for some fresh juice is ridiculous. Actually, they just generally charge too much for fruits and veggies in the US 😆Such a shame
Thanks! I've actually been living here for 3 years and have had all of that 😁 Koshary: th-cam.com/video/OtA_QjRcYME/w-d-xo.html Foul: th-cam.com/video/1gUjTTMuP7c/w-d-xo.html Molokhia: th-cam.com/video/0zq7Jwudvhw/w-d-xo.html Falafel: th-cam.com/video/nXMtsUOiR6U/w-d-xo.html
Went to Sinbads after watching your post really good they did not over charge, I speak no Arabic but got through with sign language good group of blokes also have kebabs next door.
Can’t waaaaaait for the juices. Literally couldn’t get enough mango or tamarind juice when I was there. Been dreaming of it since 🤣 Another fab video. Thank you so much for sharing this with us!
It is also my favorite Juice Shop in downtown. I use to order the avocado-nuts smoothie with honey and buy some cashews. A bit strange there you pay at the desk first which then need some communication between the juice/nut staff before they hand it over to you. I didn't know there is an upstairs seating area, good to know! Normally it is a bit crowded but you choose a relaxed time.
Yeah I go here all the time, it's usually not busy when I go though. I get the avocado nut smoothie a lot too, it's good! Many places are like this though, where you pay at the cashier first, they then give you the receipts and you hand one of them to the staff so they can make it. Lots of fast food style joints also work like this.
Your coverage make sense specially that I enjoy drinking fresh juice is Cairo and Alexandria and each shop has its delicacy. Ofcourse prices are wonderful
An excellent video will definitely try Sindbad n watermelon juice next time in Cairo. A video on coffee culture be great. It is so diverse from the small local ahwas to the large European style cafes. Love the way you converse in Arabic, good on u.
Yes I am definitely making a "cafe culture in Egypt" video, I have been actually intending to make that video for over a year and just never got around to it, though I am the local cafes all the time. I started filming for that video about a week ago now. I won't be bothering to film the European and more expensive indoor cafes, the video I am making will be about the local shops. Thanks so much for your kind words Judith 😊
I love how half the traffic lights are just for show and turned off. Never fail to impress me my beloved Egypt. Do you think you would get some sort of culture shock when you visit America and drive again?
No I don't think I would have culture shock if I went back and drove again,. But I did experience a but of culture shock after returning to the US after living and traveling 2 years abroad in Asia.
Super cool. I want fresh juice now, it's similar setup there to India. We walk on street and so many juice shops and corners, fresh, as cheap as 50 cents. Love the video and love your bike rides
Thank you Cherry! Yeah, Egypt in many ways does remind me of India. Very different culturally of course, but there are some similarities as well, and juice shops are one of them. ❤😎
Try to visit the Karnak shop in Sayeda Zaineb in Cairo. Try Qonbela "The BOMB" It's rice pudding with Basbousa and Kunafa on top then fresh fruits and juices (Mangos, apples, and bananas mostly) then Mango juice, strawberry juice, and Juave juice. and with a really thick cut of cream. Just try it it amaze U. And If U R in Giza, visit Farghaly in Gameet El Dewal. Try the fruit salad there and the Ice cream. And If U want to try the Rice pudding in Giza, then visit Elmalky but it doesn't have all the toppings such as the Qonbela from Karnak but it's still so much tasty and amazing.
I went to El Rehab to visit a friend a long time ago. It is very far away and honestly I didn't like it very much, it was kind of boring. I like where I live and there are many places to explore around here. At some point I plan to visit some other cities and make some videos like 6th of October or maybe Sheikh Zayed
Hello Giselle, thank you for this video. Wow, it looks delicious the juice that you bought. Also, as previous videos, a lot of memories while you were driving the motorcycle.... I recognize all the places. I am not sure if you have any videos having a Felucca ride at night by the Nile. I love it, so probably you can record a video showing us the good atmosphere in there. Hasta luego Che!
Ahahaha yes, the felucca rides! I did make a TH-cam Short about one of the many felucca rides I have been on quite some time ago: th-cam.com/video/YC1bITC3wSE/w-d-xo.html But it is only a very short clip. Usually it is such a party atmosphere with loud music that I don't bother filming 😅I haven't been on a felucca for some time now. Maybe if I go again I will make a longer video. But the music playing on the boats always gets copyrighted on TH-cam, and I am usually partying and perhaps not in the best condition to make a decent video....😂
@Gventures Hello Giselle, okay.yes I understand it..but thank you for sending the videoclip...haha..yes I see the atmosphere that I like when I take the ride. I am shy to get up and dance..so I just enjoy the ride watching all this. hasta luego Che!
I'm really enjoying your videos and have become a regular subscriber. I like that you added some phrases with translation. Could you do a video about ordering in a café or restaurant with phrases and translations? I'm Canadian and hope to be in Egypt in March.
Thank you so much for subscribing!!! Hmmm....I just recently did a video with some basic phrases and translations for people planning to visit Egypt. th-cam.com/video/fDDKHjDmfg0/w-d-xo.html But honestly it might be better to order in English anyway. If you start speaking Arabic they will speak it back to you and you will have no idea what they are saying. I think the basic phrases I explained in the video linked above is sufficient for ordering. I explain how to say "thank you", "can I have", "excuse me", and "the bill/check", amongst other words and phrases that could be useful for a quick trip to Egypt. So check that video out if you haven't seen it already. Oh, and something I wish I would have added to that video but I forgot to is: In Egyptian Arabic "where are you from?" is "minayn" which can kind of sound like the word "money" in English, especially if said quickly or the person is mumbling a bit. So don't make the mistake I did and think people are asking you for money when they are actually asking you "where are you from?" 🤣 When I first arrived to Egypt I only knew like 3 words in Arabic (I started learning more pretty quickly but did not learn what "where are you from" was) and people kept asking "minayn, minayn?" and I thought they were asking for money. I cringe at that now 🤣🤦♀️and it is on the internet forever lol. Here's a link one of those instances, it was my first week in Egypt and I was in Alexandria going to a fish market. Time stamp 4:30 th-cam.com/video/U24u2KTJrS8/w-d-xo.html
@Gventures haha "money, money" ... too funny!. Yes, I saw your video with greetings & market talk and commented on it & you replied. 😀 One thing that was so great about it was the pronunciations as well as the spellings. One term I've heard you use is Yallah Bina (not sure of spellings); not sure what it means. Anyway, if not a video re restaurant ordering, maybe just another similar to what you did the other day. It was *really* helpful! (I even took notes! lol). Keep up the great work! 👍 😀
@@timnoxel3387 Noted! Maybe I will try to add Franco (that's English characters/spelling for Arabic words) in the future. Probably not all the time as it gets to be too much, but I'm sure it would be useful to someone at some point. Yalla bina (that's how I spell it too) just means "let's go do it" essentially. The bina part is not necessary, but Egyptians say it sometimes, and it rolls off the tongue so many times I say it 😅I'm really glad my videos have been helpful, it strengthens my resolve to continue making videos and it's rewarding to hear they are useful in some sense, so thank you!!!
🤣🤣I am already in the process of making that video, actually! I have been meaning to make a video about cafes in Egypt for a year but I never got around to it. I finally started to film for that about a week ago
@@Gventures really you are the best non egyptian youtuber covering egypt, if you keep doing this for one year more you will even beat the egyptians, you just need to add to your long list the islamic and coptic monuments
@@waakwaak 😅Thanks waakwaak! I dunno about beating any Egyptians, but I am definitely enjoying making these videos and sharing my love of the culture with anyone who watches! Lol I knowwwww I haven't done a lot of religious monuments....I just don't feel I am very good at filming monuments and old stuff (I always feel the videos I've made about stuff like that are a bit boring), and I find it very exhausting to make those videos as well. I really don't know my religious history 😅Maybe maybe maybe one day I will put myself to the task. I just feel so out of place...I think it would be better to bring a Copt to the sites and have them talk about stuff and bring a Muslim to the mosque and they can tell me some stuff...otherwise I feel like a fish out of water
You are right about the juice shops, they are amazing! However, I refrain from going there and no resort to making my own because I am concerned about the water they use. I am assuming it is tap water which is not ideal. I make mine with bottled. Still have to get the sugarcane from them because it cannot be made at home. Thanks for the video!
Oh that's unfortunate. I'm not sure if they are using tap but if they are I bet it's filtered. Anyway, I have never gotten sick from the juices, and I don't know anyone else that has either, so that's comforting, for those who are concerned about that.
Again, love watching your videos they are done so well! You are a bold and pioneering person and I love watching your adventures! If your ever in Virginia, we’ll have to find cool things here lol! Probably why I love your videos, I don’t get out enough. Keep up the excellent work!
While you drive I feel how adventurer you are by deciding to take sharp manoeuvres in a very short time ,, It seems that you acquired the Egyptian driving bad habits ,, 🤓😅😅 Take care and drive safely ,, I Apprecie your videos as it ( unlike others ) shows the nice side of Egypt and the Egyptians ,, 🌹🌹❤️🥰😍,,
Haha, shukran! I will try to remember to drive carefully, I know sometimes I feel a bit cocky and get reckless and that is when accidents happen. Ba7eb Masr! ❤
It might be better if you say, Instead of ( Shooya Sukar), you could say ( Sukar Kafif)= light sugar, Zero Sugar = Bedoon Sukar, Extra Sugar= Sukar Zeada, Mild Sugar= Sukar Mazboot. 😊
@@therockcenation2822 You can't edit a video once it's been uploaded. Anyways, a foreigner saying something like I did is better than them not knowing anything at all
Need vedio for your experience being in egypt more than one year To tell us how is life in egypt as a foreigner and how egyption deals or treat you and more details about being for long time in egypt I like your vedios ❤
I am intending to visit Cairo and some incentive through your videos, please will you advise me the good areas to stay as i was looking on Airbnb, Zamalek Nasar city or down town in Cairo. thanks
I wouldn't stay in Nasr City, that's too far away. I prefer downtown, but Zamalek is still pretty close to everything while being tucked away on the island, so a little more quiet and green. No matter where you stay, you will almost always need an Uber to get somewhere, the distances are very large here. Unless you love walking a lot 😅 Zamalek you can walk around and explore a little but, same with downtown Cairo, but it's just going to be shops and restaurants and just observing daily life and the streets. When you actually want to get anywhere and have a destination in mind, you're probably going to need wheels of some kind. I don't know if you saw this video or not, but I talk about the neighborhoods I recommend a little bit. th-cam.com/video/Il6pZFgyl_I/w-d-xo.html Also, not sure what kind of traveler you are (old or young, preference of hotel or hostel, private room or dorm, etc). But if you don't mind staying in dorms, I made a video about my top 5 favorite hostels in downtown Cairo. Many of them have private rooms as well as dorms. Something to consider. th-cam.com/video/zRG8qvqFNrc/w-d-xo.html
@Gventures I like to stay independent and cook my own food hot and spicy whilst all Arabia Morocco and Egypt eat very mild. Therefore, I like my own food. At one time, I was used to walking a lot now. I became tired and exhausted due to age factors. Anyway, thanks a lot. I shall look downtown.
Do they sell at that one the cactus juice? I had that for the first time when I was in Egypt, I believe on my second trip there. LOL, not a fan of Turkish coffee though. I was thrilled when I found out Cairo has Dunkin Donuts there, and I love DD's coffee, so I was a happy camper. 😂 By the way how in the world do you drive on a motorbike in Cairo? You have some guts! LOL! I am a pretty experienced driver, but even I wouldn't have the guts to drive there. 🤣
I am not entirely sure what you mean by "that one cactus juice," this place as so many different types of juices it's ridiculous. I do love Turkish coffee, but I've always loved espresso and strong flavors in general. I learned how to drive a motorcycle here in Cairo. It wasn't easy because it's always so busy and there is nowhere to practice, but it taught me to be a better driver. I love it
@@Gventures It's called Opuntia, more commonly called the prickly pear cactus, and where I was at in Cairo, I tried some for the first time. It was actually not bad at all. The juice you got from there did look good.
Hello ,love your channel, i have read there is some difficulties to make e-visa, some people simple just not getting approved,they apply again and got rejected and not getting any refund,some people even apply three times...is that just urban legends or reallity ?
Really? I have never heard of that happening. But to be fair, I don't know many people that get an e-visa in advance. Most people I know just get a visa on arrival (myself included) and if they want to stay longer they go to the immigration office and extend it.
It's probably the only thing i miss about cairo . i been to many south east asian countries in which everyone talks about tropical fruits all fresh and abundant bla bla, i only got coloured water and stomachache ... add humidity to the menace 😔
Yes I love the juice shops in Egypt! There's lots of great fruits in Asia, I've tried a lot of them myself (and sugarcane juice) and enjoyed them in SEA, but Egypt does the juice better 😎
@@Gventures Brazil was the best place i visited and as fruits lover also , it's just wonderful country and lovely people . so... enjoy your travels n stay safe . ciao , peace 👋
@@Arab--Man Haven't been to Brazil yet, but I've heard great things, can't wait to visit myself. My father is from Argentina so next time I'm there to visit family I will have to stop in Brazil, I've wanted to for a long time
As a juicer myself your supposed to consume right away because the quality and health value expires immediately so just something for you to consider about fresh juices friend
Please wear gloves while you riding. A hand injuries from falling down and crashing motorcycle are very painful. Ask me how I know. Be safe. I enjoy your videos. Thank you
Hello Giselle, when I've watched this video, one USD is no longer 30, but it is almost 47 EGP. It is good for the tourist but definetely not for the locals. As you were passing by the museum of Egyptian, I didn't see any pedestrian crosswalk. How do people manage without enough croswalks?
Hahahaha! Yes that's very observant of you to have noticed that about the Egyptian Museum, there is no crosswalk 🤣 So tourists that walk there themselves are dashing across the road for their lives 😆😆 A nice "Welcome to Egypt!" for them 😂
@@Gventures I used to use this 🙏emoji for 'pray', but somebody has brought it to my attention that Muslims use a different emoji for pray🤲. Nowadays I use both emoji. I'm planning to spend 2 days in Luxor, 2 days in Aswan and 1.5 days in Cairo in the late October of this year. If the traffic is the way I see in these videos (without pedestrian crosswalks) as a 65+ person, I think I'm going to need a lot of these🙏🙏🙏🤲🤲🤲 P.S. I'll continue watching your videos. Actually, after seeing temple of Hathor video, I have decided that it is a 'must see' place. I'll try to see it as well. Best regards.
@@mahmutlevent4297 Oh haha, I see. That's thoughtful of you 🤲😁 Don't worry too much about the streets, people will stop in their cars for people crossing (even if it doesn't look like it 😅). You can also just find a local to cross the street with, that's usually my recommendation. There's always some Egyptian about to cross the street, just walk right next to them and easy peazy, you're on the other side. Glad to hear you're going to be visiting the temple of Hathor, that's my favorite temple!!! Not only is it absolutely stunning for multiple reasons, but there tends to be less tourists because it's a bit out of the way. Something I did not do (which I really screwed up!) was not seeing the relief of Cleopatra VII and Caesarion at the Dendera Temple. It's outside, in the back of the temple, make sure you see it while there!
Holy Sheet?! I only stayed there for two months, but I've been in Egypt for 2 years. I found an apt and moved when I decided I was going to stay and live in Egypt
I don't know when the Egyptian Ministry of Transport would introduce an old invention called lane lines road markings to the motorways and the streets in Egypt! And also zebra crossings!
"Showaia Sukkr" you said He might understand it as a bit more sugar plz Instead you could say; Sukker Aolayy-ill Or simply say Sukker diet, most Egyptians understand diet, used in Egyptian daily conversions Aolayy-ill; in standard Arabic is قليل In case you wanted to try it on Google translate But in Egyptian dialect we pronounce it as I tried to pronounce it to you in written English letters
Explain what? I don't understand what your question is. I give several examples of the cost of things in the video. I say the cost of the juice in the video
Very weird how i enjoy watching your content. Weird in the sense that i understand how Egypt work very will. Living here my whole life. And i get no added value from the content. May be validating the information you give. May be seeing your reaction. May be you have attractive humble personality. I really don't know why i am watching exactly. Keep it going any ways. This content works for me. Next stop. Atabba market 😂
Ahahaha, this is funny. And that's great for me to hear, no specific reason for watching, but still somehow engaging? Yes, I'll take that! 😅 Thank you. By the way, I did film in Atabba before 😎 th-cam.com/video/u2T2Deiwdo4/w-d-xo.html
@@Gventures offf, i was joking about the attaba market. I cannot believe you survived that. I cannot bear walking there 5 minutes. People there are too loud and don't understand the personal space concept.

Probably not all the time as it gets to be too much, but I'm sure it would be useful to someone at some point. Yalla bina (that's how I spell it too) just means "let's go do it" essentially. The bina part is not necessary, but Egyptians say it sometimes, and it rolls off the tongue so many times I say it 😅I'm really glad my videos have been helpful, it strengthens my resolve to continue making videos and it's rewarding to hear they are useful in some sense, so thank you!!!
You have a beautiful smile BTW
Thanks
I learned how to say some fruits and beverage in arabic yesterday
Haha, congrats man! Now just don't forget them 😅 It's helpful to know that stuff when at a shop like this
@@Gventures😄
I think its a good idea to do a video about egyptian cafe (qahwa balady)
🤣🤣I am already in the process of making that video, actually! I have been meaning to make a video about cafes in Egypt for a year but I never got around to it. I finally started to film for that about a week ago
@@Gventures really you are the best non egyptian youtuber covering egypt, if you keep doing this for one year more you will even beat the egyptians, you just need to add to your long list the islamic and coptic monuments
@@waakwaak 😅Thanks waakwaak! I dunno about beating any Egyptians, but I am definitely enjoying making these videos and sharing my love of the culture with anyone who watches! Lol I knowwwww I haven't done a lot of religious monuments....I just don't feel I am very good at filming monuments and old stuff (I always feel the videos I've made about stuff like that are a bit boring), and I find it very exhausting to make those videos as well. I really don't know my religious history 😅Maybe maybe maybe one day I will put myself to the task. I just feel so out of place...I think it would be better to bring a Copt to the sites and have them talk about stuff and bring a Muslim to the mosque and they can tell me some stuff...otherwise I feel like a fish out of water
You are right about the juice shops, they are amazing! However, I refrain from going there and no resort to making my own because I am concerned about the water they use. I am assuming it is tap water which is not ideal. I make mine with bottled. Still have to get the sugarcane from them because it cannot be made at home. Thanks for the video!
Oh that's unfortunate. I'm not sure if they are using tap but if they are I bet it's filtered. Anyway, I have never gotten sick from the juices, and I don't know anyone else that has either, so that's comforting, for those who are concerned about that.
❤️🌹❤️🌹❤️
Again, love watching your videos they are done so well! You are a bold and pioneering person and I love watching your adventures! If your ever in Virginia, we’ll have to find cool things here lol!
Probably why I love your videos, I don’t get out enough. Keep up the excellent work!
Ahaha, thank you so much Belbrown! ❤
While you drive I feel how adventurer you are by deciding to take sharp manoeuvres in a very short time ,, It seems that you acquired the Egyptian driving bad habits ,, 🤓😅😅
Take care and drive safely ,,
I Apprecie your videos as it ( unlike others ) shows the nice side of Egypt and the Egyptians ,, 🌹🌹❤️🥰😍,,
Haha, shukran! I will try to remember to drive carefully, I know sometimes I feel a bit cocky and get reckless and that is when accidents happen. Ba7eb Masr! ❤
@@Gventures
God bless you ,, Take care 🤲🥰
It might be better if you say, Instead of ( Shooya Sukar), you could say ( Sukar Kafif)= light sugar, Zero Sugar = Bedoon Sukar, Extra Sugar= Sukar Zeada, Mild Sugar= Sukar Mazboot. 😊
I do this for coffee, but not at the juice shop 😆
Good job 👍🏼👏🏼 but sukar khafif 😅 edit please .. and keep going
@@therockcenation2822 You can't edit a video once it's been uploaded. Anyways, a foreigner saying something like I did is better than them not knowing anything at all
Need vedio for your experience being in egypt more than one year
To tell us how is life in egypt as a foreigner and how egyption deals or treat you and more details about being for long time in egypt
I like your vedios ❤

@@Gventures i mean you talke about your experience in egypt
@@nesreenyehia1603 Hmm, yes I see. Perhaps I will do that sometime. Thanks for the idea 😊
Nice video..keep it up girl 👏
12:25 a Minor Correction 😉👇
Meesh sukar = It is not sugar
Bedon sukar = No\without sugar
Lol, oh no way! Thank you for that correction. I will have to remember that next time 🙏

I am intending to visit Cairo and some incentive through your videos, please will you advise me the good areas to stay as i was looking on Airbnb, Zamalek Nasar city or down town in Cairo. thanks
I wouldn't stay in Nasr City, that's too far away. I prefer downtown, but Zamalek is still pretty close to everything while being tucked away on the island, so a little more quiet and green. No matter where you stay, you will almost always need an Uber to get somewhere, the distances are very large here. Unless you love walking a lot 😅 Zamalek you can walk around and explore a little but, same with downtown Cairo, but it's just going to be shops and restaurants and just observing daily life and the streets. When you actually want to get anywhere and have a destination in mind, you're probably going to need wheels of some kind. I don't know if you saw this video or not, but I talk about the neighborhoods I recommend a little bit. th-cam.com/video/Il6pZFgyl_I/w-d-xo.html
Also, not sure what kind of traveler you are (old or young, preference of hotel or hostel, private room or dorm, etc). But if you don't mind staying in dorms, I made a video about my top 5 favorite hostels in downtown Cairo. Many of them have private rooms as well as dorms. Something to consider. th-cam.com/video/zRG8qvqFNrc/w-d-xo.html
@Gventures thanks for your detailed reply. I will be 60 in February. I saw your video top hostels in Cairo downtown. Uber bike, I prefer. Thanks
@Gventures I like to stay independent and cook my own food hot and spicy whilst all Arabia Morocco and Egypt eat very mild. Therefore, I like my own food. At one time, I was used to walking a lot now. I became tired and exhausted due to age factors. Anyway, thanks a lot. I shall look downtown.
Do they sell at that one the cactus juice? I had that for the first time when I was in Egypt, I believe on my second trip there. LOL, not a fan of Turkish coffee though. I was thrilled when I found out Cairo has Dunkin Donuts there, and I love DD's coffee, so I was a happy camper. 😂 By the way how in the world do you drive on a motorbike in Cairo? You have some guts! LOL! I am a pretty experienced driver, but even I wouldn't have the guts to drive there. 🤣
I am not entirely sure what you mean by "that one cactus juice," this place as so many different types of juices it's ridiculous. I do love Turkish coffee, but I've always loved espresso and strong flavors in general. I learned how to drive a motorcycle here in Cairo. It wasn't easy because it's always so busy and there is nowhere to practice, but it taught me to be a better driver. I love it
@@Gventures It's called Opuntia, more commonly called the prickly pear cactus, and where I was at in Cairo, I tried some for the first time. It was actually not bad at all. The juice you got from there did look good.
In Arabic it's called Teen shoki (spiky fig) is the literal translation 😂
@@amrhamdy2461 LOL, thank you! I really enjoyed that drink.
Hello ,love your channel, i have read there is some difficulties to make e-visa, some people simple just not getting approved,they apply again and got rejected and not getting any refund,some people even apply three times...is that just urban legends or reallity ?
Really? I have never heard of that happening. But to be fair, I don't know many people that get an e-visa in advance. Most people I know just get a visa on arrival (myself included) and if they want to stay longer they go to the immigration office and extend it.
you made me thirsty
احييك علي قيادة الموتو

It's probably the only thing i miss about cairo .
i been to many south east asian countries in which everyone talks about tropical fruits all fresh and abundant bla bla, i only got coloured water and stomachache ... add humidity to the menace 😔
Yes I love the juice shops in Egypt! There's lots of great fruits in Asia, I've tried a lot of them myself (and sugarcane juice) and enjoyed them in SEA, but Egypt does the juice better 😎
@@Gventures Brazil was the best place i visited and as fruits lover also , it's just wonderful country and lovely people .
so... enjoy your travels n stay safe .
ciao , peace 👋
@@Arab--Man Haven't been to Brazil yet, but I've heard great things, can't wait to visit myself. My father is from Argentina so next time I'm there to visit family I will have to stop in Brazil, I've wanted to for a long time
As a juicer myself your supposed to consume right away because the quality and health value expires immediately so just something for you to consider about fresh juices friend
Please wear gloves while you riding. A hand injuries from falling down and crashing motorcycle are very painful. Ask me how I know. Be safe. I enjoy your videos. Thank you
Hello Giselle, when I've watched this video, one USD is no longer 30, but it is almost 47 EGP. It is good for the tourist but definetely not for the locals.
As you were passing by the museum of Egyptian, I didn't see any pedestrian crosswalk. How do people manage without enough croswalks?
Hahahaha! Yes that's very observant of you to have noticed that about the Egyptian Museum, there is no crosswalk 🤣 So tourists that walk there themselves are dashing across the road for their lives 😆😆 A nice "Welcome to Egypt!" for them 😂
@@Gventures 😄😄😄🤔🤔🤔🤲🤲🤲
@@mahmutlevent4297 🤲🤲what's this emoji?
@@Gventures I used to use this 🙏emoji for 'pray', but somebody has brought it to my attention that Muslims use a different emoji for pray🤲. Nowadays I use both emoji. I'm planning to spend 2 days in Luxor, 2 days in Aswan and 1.5 days in Cairo in the late October of this year. If the traffic is the way I see in these videos (without pedestrian crosswalks) as a 65+ person, I think I'm going to need a lot of these🙏🙏🙏🤲🤲🤲
P.S. I'll continue watching your videos. Actually, after seeing temple of Hathor video, I have decided that it is a 'must see' place. I'll try to see it as well. Best regards.
@@mahmutlevent4297 Oh haha, I see. That's thoughtful of you 🤲😁 Don't worry too much about the streets, people will stop in their cars for people crossing (even if it doesn't look like it 😅). You can also just find a local to cross the street with, that's usually my recommendation. There's always some Egyptian about to cross the street, just walk right next to them and easy peazy, you're on the other side.
Glad to hear you're going to be visiting the temple of Hathor, that's my favorite temple!!! Not only is it absolutely stunning for multiple reasons, but there tends to be less tourists because it's a bit out of the way. Something I did not do (which I really screwed up!) was not seeing the relief of Cleopatra VII and Caesarion at the Dendera Temple. It's outside, in the back of the temple, make sure you see it while there!
What I miss most about Egypt! All the freshly squeezed fruit juice you can have! Dirt cheap too!
your apartment? what happened the HOLY SHEET HOSTEL?
Holy Sheet?! I only stayed there for two months, but I've been in Egypt for 2 years. I found an apt and moved when I decided I was going to stay and live in Egypt
I don't know when the Egyptian Ministry of Transport would introduce an old invention called lane lines road markings to the motorways and the streets in Egypt! And also zebra crossings!
Well, some roads do have painted lines for lanes. But everyone knows, they're just for decoration 😆
@@Gventures 😅😅
"Showaia Sukkr" you said
He might understand it as a bit more sugar plz
Instead you could say;
Sukker Aolayy-ill
Or simply say Sukker diet, most Egyptians understand diet, used in Egyptian daily conversions
Aolayy-ill; in standard Arabic is قليل
In case you wanted to try it on Google translate
But in Egyptian dialect we pronounce it as I tried to pronounce it to you in written English letters
Yeah my boyfriend is from Cairo so I know, I ask him questions anytime I need help with Arabic, but I don't always remember that stuff in the moment
Dear if you could explain us with price, it will be grateful for us 💖
Explain what? I don't understand what your question is. I give several examples of the cost of things in the video. I say the cost of the juice in the video
Very weird how i enjoy watching your content. Weird in the sense that i understand how Egypt work very will. Living here my whole life. And i get no added value from the content.
May be validating the information you give. May be seeing your reaction. May be you have attractive humble personality. I really don't know why i am watching exactly.
Keep it going any ways. This content works for me.
Next stop. Atabba market 😂
Ahahaha, this is funny. And that's great for me to hear, no specific reason for watching, but still somehow engaging? Yes, I'll take that! 😅 Thank you. By the way, I did film in Atabba before 😎 th-cam.com/video/u2T2Deiwdo4/w-d-xo.html
@@Gventures offf, i was joking about the attaba market. I cannot believe you survived that. I cannot bear walking there 5 minutes. People there are too loud and don't understand the personal space concept.
@@psycdice Oh ahaha🤣But I actually love wandering around in local markets. Another interesting one is Sayed Aisha th-cam.com/video/CdxBmfRQ9tA/w-d-xo.html
And there's gay on TH-cam his show called shawarana you will learn a lot from him about Egyptian city's and streets
I looked up Shawarana on TH-cam but did not find any result for that channel
So cheap. If i bought that in my country it would be a total of 15 dollars minimum. And would not even be same quality.
Yes, the currency and income is different here than in other countries. It is very delicious, and filling, I couldn't finish this crepe once again 😅
