Alexandria, something like a smooth getaway

So my Alexandria trip was fantastic. The traffic was crazy! The view was beautiful! My family was amazing! How better can it get? So I felt like I was very lucky to be with the host family I was with. I had a host uncle that owned a villa five minutes away from the Mediterranean sea… the house was like a dream setting. Right when I walk in, the pool was in the front courtyard with beautiful vines surroundings the walls and lights that peak through the walls. There was also a to die for balcony… you can see the most amazing view of the ocean and the towering beautiful villas. There goes my dream home in Alexandria…

While I was there I missed my host family in Ismailia sooooooooooooooooo much I couldn’t wait to get back…. I spent a lost of time observing the Alexandria culture and how it contrast with ismailias…. Its pretty different… but I love both cities they will always have a place in my heart.

omg we had the most uncomfortable train experience ever it was sooo crowded a whole family took our seat so we had to kind of argue for them wel i mean someone helped us out it was just uncomfortable because we or us americans were on the train by our selves with no egyption but the cool thing was is that we got around... i felt almost like a bonified traverler which was nice haha what an experience and i loved it i cant wait for more to come but we are leaving in five days.... i loved it here sooo much
