    Everyone in Egypt seems so genuinely kind. I love that you're showing these videos of the Middle East. It really helps to show the true side of this area, not the monsters that our media so often makes Middle Eastern people out to be.

    The wonderful thing is that you did realize that Alexandria is in fact a foodie's destination, which is a matter of solid fact. Us, Cairo residents, always go to Alexandria just to indulge in the variety of foods they have and how masterfully delicious it is.
    Hoping Alexandria did fix the bad impression you got when you visited Giza and Cairo.
    Love and support from Cairo, Egypt.
