The Beginning


After a day and a half of plane flights, we have finally made it to our hostel, the Association of Upper Egypt, home for the next six weeks. Our room here is wonderful and everyone we have encountered has shown us great hospitality--carrying our bags, making us tea, and ensuring our safety and comfort. Cairo itself is beautiful in its agedness and continuous chaos. When we took the taxi to our hotel last night at 3 a.m., the streets were still crowded with people, buses, and donkey carts. We look forward to beginning our work with the Recycling School in this city that never sleeps. The link below is a video of our travels thus far, enjoy!
