It's been one month and i'm all settled in with my family. So for any
of you who might be coming to Egypt to stay for a while, here's some advice. If you're planning to stay for just a few months, you should probably get a furnished apartment because you don't want to buy a lot of stuff and when you're ready to leave you have to try to sell everything. Depending on the area you stay in and the size of apt, a furnished apartment ranges anywhere from 8 hundred to 3000 Egyptian pounds a month. Which is far cheaper than the equivalent in Trinidad or the States. In a remote area, you can get a very nice three bedroom apt for 850. There are some places however that are like gated communities. These places h
ave free buses, special cab services with a set price of 5 pounds as long as you're traveling within the community, every store and food place you can think of, 24hr doctors, amusement parks and much more. Rehab is an example of one of these places. A furnished 3 bedroom apt here is about 3000 Egyptian pounds, but if you're planning to stay in Egypt for a few years it's definately worth it for the comfort and the convenience. Luckily my wife and I only live about 5mins away from here. So we hang out a lot here. We're big Cinnabon fans and they have a particularly big one so here are some pics from our last visit.
