Paradise Lost?
Who are we? Map What is Egypt like?
Egypt won the first part of their revolution on 11th February 2011 – there is much to do to bring Egypt into the 21st century. I found this report ‘No Paradise’ and realised one can find very opposing perspectives according to…
- who you are – (an Egyptian or a tourist),
- where you are (in Cairo or floating down the Nile on a pleasure boat),
- the time you are observing (before the revolution or after) and
- whether you are negative or positive (wish to highlight the beauty, interesting history and culture, good people, fascinating local styles, fabulous local food…or… the poverty, struggles, rubbish and dirty streets, abusive security and corruption)
