I lived in Alexandria from 2001 to 2003. The air pollution doesn't stagnate because it's blown inland, unlike Cairo, and the quality of life is better. I have happy memories. I went back for a visit in 2008 and it hadn't really changed, but since then Egypt has endured tumultuous times.

I ve lived in Cairo now for 3 years, unfortunately its very difficult to find work online here if you dont speak Arabic, I signed up to many site who immedately refused me/offered me work in Arabic despite I selected I speak only English/or there was never any tasks viewable due to my location. The internet is improving but no where near to western standards, VPNs can be blocked with the government employing deep packet spying methods and throttling the connection. Life can be cheap but the quality is very bad, since the devaluation of the currency anything of decent international standards is twice of what it costs outside of Egypt.
Life for single females can be daunting and research into local culture must be done as to not attract unwanted attention simply by being friendly with the opposite sex unfortunately. Local shops will try to rip you off as a foreigner so stick to malls and supermarkets with barcodes and displayed prices. The lack of open spaces, health & safety and decent trustable health care are things to consider before moving here, as are traffic and nightmare road conditions. Unless you have a substantial budget to live in a modern compound bubble-type community then life can become depression and dull due to lack of decent well priced faciltities, over crowding, rubbish, pollution and poverty. Its great for a hit and run trip to do the tourist things, but long term you need something that makes it worth being here.

Before you go "OMG EGYPT IT'S UNSAFE FOR WOMEN etc etc". This is El Gouna, not a normal Egyptian town!

Yes it's part of Egypt. But it's a closed off private tourist resort town. It has its own security force, like police. It has its own hospital, etc.

The six pyramids of Giza. The seven wonders. I took this picture on a back of a camel and with a hard sun on my back. I felt like a real desert nomad, walking aimlessly, looking at the sand and at the pyramids. I thought of how great this moment was, looking at these wonders up close is simply sensational, a dream experience.
