Well Mr. Sayed I live in Alexandria and I rarely visit Cairo but if I do I can let you know. However I do have a friend in Maadi who teaches English if you are interested

Today was the best yet.
6 Americans
1 Canadian
1 Syrian
and lots of Egyptians too much fun to be honest.
I really go through the entire week just for this day

Oh that sounds like you had fun. Imagine if I would have been there, we would have been 2 Canadians!
haha
It's a joke!

I'm still in Montreal but may be coming to Egypt soon. Alexandria looks much easier "to handle" than Cairo with cooler temperatures, sea breeze and not as big.

Anyone who lives in Alexandria will never stand to stay for more than a few hours in Cairo. Once u live close to the water u become a fish and a fish can not live away from the water
if you ever do come I will be more than glad to give u a hand
I can handle a few Canadians
Enjoy and take care

Oh thank you, I guess fins and snorkel should go into the suitcase but are there clean beaches near Alexandria? I heard there is an expensive one on land that used to be royalty owned.

How is the cost for apartments? When I travel I usually stay in youth hostels and there seem to be 2 of the them in Alex. But I would like to come longer and likely find an apt. I saw some vids from people in Cairo showing very scary apartments. Cracks, bad plumbing, outlets don't work, windows and doors that don't work right, even rats. An American couple was wondering when their bedroom wall would fall out with the big crack it had. It's kind of hilarious but I wouldn't want to experience these things.

I agree! I lived in Cairo for four years and would stay in Alexandria for several months at a time. I prefer Alexandria to Cairo.

as far as apt you just have to know where to look and you cant go wrong
if u always go for what is cheapest u may wind up with lots of cheap stuff and will be disappointed instead pay for what is reasonable and u will be fine

I can offer you one for arabic .. Im an igcse egyptian btw ^_^

i am so interested , pls send me a private message including the place and the time of the next meeting , highly appreciated

Really looking forward to attending this meet-up in the near future, too! It's such a good idea. My big expat flight is in ten days now, and apart from currently suffering from both Rabies and Typhoid vaccinations exacerbating an already fierce case of the flu, I'm looking forward to all Alexandria has to offer!

haha .. just woke up and getting ready for the meetup,, im so happy ... running in the whole house imagining how amazing its gonna be talking freely with different cultures .. thanks for the happinness buddy youre one of a kind

Hahahah!! There goes one happy man!!    Have an amazing time, guys!

We will welcome you with open hands when u arrive just let me know. and if there is anything I can help with I will be more than happy
