Egypt, Syria, Jordan, India, Uganda, Canada, Spain, Highlands and Islands of Scotland
Places I want to go to:

About me:
Just another lost soul wandering the labyrinths of life. After two years as an adventure travel tour leader in the Middle East, I stumbled into the delicious chaos of Cairo, where I worked for a while as an English teacher and freelance writer.

I am also NileGuide’s Cairo local expert, and regularly contribute to Trazzler.

We tumble off our donkeys, giggling like school kids. Our guide is already waiting for us. “Yes,” he raises one hand in benediction, “I am he.” We already know – we went through this yesterday at Karnak Temple. He gestures for us to follow. Limbs stiff but tongues loose after the hour-long...
They say that on a clear day you can see the Pyramids from here. But there are few clear days in Cairo, and I no longer bother to look. I’m jammed into the front seat of an ancient black cab, which means there’s no fixed fare. I glance at the driver, sizing him up. Fine cheekbones, button-bright...
