Cairo — The best part for me is that the chain looks like a repurposed door latch chain. It is the perfect length and comes with a base.
Scouring the Boustan Hacker mall in downtown Cairo. I love finding obscure tech that has no business being here.
I rarely go to ahwa cafes anymore. I always feel reconnected to Cairo when I do a random walk about and try new places.
Siting in a cafe during another Cairo power outage. Conversations don't pause anymore. It has become so normal to habitually lose electricity.
Exploring the Great Cairo Library in Zamalek for the first time. Recently renovated and extremely nice. Will come back.
I noticed last night's felucca boat had a bottle opener on a chain. Probably for all the foreigners who bring beer on board and forget one.
I have gotten used to taxis in Cairo. Lately I have caught myself forgetting the driver is even there.
I am always looking for a better cafe in Cairo. I miss free public spaces and parks.
