Hey

I've only been to Egypt once, and even then it was an extremely brief visit, but i really did enjoy the people and the general feel of masr. It's always so bustling and excited. Sort of a culture shock as i live in Dallas, which is really mellow, quiet and laid back. Everyone sort of keeps to themselves, which wasn't the case in Egypt where everyone was sooooo eager to help whenever i was in need.
The hospitality in both places is something they have in common, so i quickly felt at ease in that environment. I like vacationing anywhere really, and i don't like going back to same place repeatedly unless im going specifically for family. (I have family in Nothern Iraq (kurdistan) and some in Lebanon and Iran). I want to see everything in the world eventually and i consider myself a citizen of the world
I am totally into criminology, and i LOVE watching documentaries on infamous criminal minds and then not getting any sleep afterwards. Im kind of a history buff and i go through different phases where i really delve deep into a particular era or region and dig out everything i find fascinating about that time period or place. I love poetry, especially the classics, and i dont think any one place contributed more or less, or that any language is more or less beautiful or eloquent than another.
