  Cairo Pics - Eid, my Bedouin camel guide in the Sinai

Top: a woman and her children near Eid's village.

Below: a picture of Eid, my Bedouin camel guide who climbed with me up the side of Mt. Saint Katherine, the highest point in Egypt, in the Sinai - the place where Moses revealed the Ten Commandments. Here we are near Eid's village as he checks his text messages. See the blog from 6.5.05 that tells the story of Eid and my trip to the Sinai.

Greetings. I am an American girl from Washington, DC. In January 2005 I left home to spend 18 months living in Cairo, Egypt and then Beirut, Lebanon to learn Arabic and to work on my MA. I left Beirut 3 weeks before the war in Lebanon began in 2006. After two years back in the US, I've just returned to Lebanon. This blog tells the story of my time in Cairo, Beirut, Boston, DC, New Hampshire and now Beirut again. You can send an email to ria@post.harvard.edu if you'd like.
