And I can feel it all the way from Texas.

The mystery of the country, combined with it's ancient history (literally, ancient) placed it very high on my "must explore before I am no more" list quite some time ago. Today, while perusing the Rosewood Hotels and Resorts Facebook page, I stumbled upon an opportunity that very well could result in a life-changing adventure.
This travel opportunity is the inaugural voyage of AFAR Experiences, and it is going to be held in Cairo, Egypt this October. This spectacular 3-day event encompasses everything I want in a solo expedition to a foreign country: culture, nightlife, exploration, history, current events and the opportunity for insight into everyday life of it's inhabitants. The premise behind these events is just mindwatering (like mouthwatering but for your brain), you really have to check it out for yourself to really understand what this company is doing: http://www.afarexperiences.com/cairo.
See what I mean? Most definitely a life-changing adventure. Mission for the next couple of weeks: figure out how to make this possible for myself so that I can become a more informed, and much more fulfilled, global citizen.

It's been a Nile and we need an update if you ever figured out how to make this happen!? Egypt is high on our list too. What would life be without all the interesting places in the world? (And that includes FWTX cause somedays I wish I could be back there!
Kate!! I know! I have a tumblr blog too and cannot figure out which one to use: http://galonthegogo.tumblr.com/
Thoughts? Advice?
AFAR didn't happen this round :(, too many other trips too close together, but definitely keeping up with them and definitely making it to Egypt!
