Experiencing the changing landscapes has been truely humbling. Travel never fails to remind me how small I am, but how big my heart is. I feel everything here. Soaking up the textures of every street I walk down, every interaction with a stranger, even the desert sand in my eyes has its place.
I have seen so much already, my eyes have never been so busy. Straight into the deep end, Cairo Egypt. The phrase ‘Sensory Overload’ doesn’t even come close… A melting pot of ancient and modern history, religion, archeology and architecture. Awe inspiring beauty, extreme poverty and all the chaos in between.
I feel blessed to view it all through a privileged lens, so I do my best to see all sides. Walk the long way, visit local shops and engage in conversations when I can. Of course the tourist traps are popular for a reason, but the energy in the streets here is palpable.
What a cruel, beautiful world. I feel alive.
