I have been visiting Egypt since 1993 and Siwa Oasis since 1995. In November 2010 I moved to Siwa to live. I fell in love with this beautiful place and its people. In January 2012 I moved to the Red Sea and Sinai, on the other side of Egypt, but I return to Siwa regularly. I continue my work as a writer about architecture, design, travel and culture.

I hope this blog will give some insights to life in Siwa, and life in Egypt more generally.
Eventually I hope to publish a book of extracts from my blog, and a book of photographs from my Egyptian travels.

Hope you’ve arrived safe and sound. Looking forward to following you on your Egyptian adventure!
I have been living in Egypt since October 1992 and never went to Siwa, in fact, I have not visited many places during all those years.
Living in Siwa must be a daily challenge.
