Just here in Cairo living the simple life :) “Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” - Mark Twain

15 things

In the spirit of Facebook, that sounds all wrong, I decided to dedicate a post to all the notes titled ’15 random facts about me’. Instead of writing about myself, I believe writing about Cairo would be far more relevant.

15 Things that Cairo Needs (in my opinion of course)

1. A proper waste or disposal system for trash for the entire city of Cairo, not just selected areas.
2. Parking lots and Parking decks. In a city of over 8 million people with cars, parking lots would be optimal.
3. Along with parking issues, public transportation would be very helpful. If MARTA puts Cairo’s public transportation system to shame, there is definitely a problem.
4. Mexican Food. On the border does not count
5. Blockbuster or Netflix
6. Computers in Governmental buildings. I think I’m still bitter about waiting 5 hours for my visa.
7. A national campaign to reduce smoking.
8. American made Twinkies
9. Ice cream truck, I think the heat and high number of children would bring an ice cream man great profit.
10. Crosswalks, I’ve almost lost my life numerous times
11. More internet cafes
12. Lean Pockets…. Hot Pockets would suffice
13. FRESH AIR
14. Target
15. Popeye’s’ Biscuits and Dirty Rice
16. Smart Cars (15 was not enough)
