Hello everyone this one should be quite long, as i have not written for a while and a lot has happened since my last post, as you may have heard on the news – unless you were hibernating or you are just plain sh*t. everything started on tuesday 25 january. while the first protests were occurring in the streets of cairo, my flatmate (isabelle)’s
Ok, may was a funny month... i started looking for a new flat in the city centre, as i am fed up with living in the south east suburbs where everything seems so far away – except for my school, which is literally down the road! but who wants to live near their workplace?! ugh. on sunday 6 may, i went to the french consulate to vote for our new pr

Over the easter holidays, my mother came to visit. i was really happy to see her and looking forward to our planned holiday cruise on the nile for the next five days. when she first arrived in cairo, i took her to a silver shop where many of my colleagues and i usually go to get some presents for people. what a mistake! my mother is so difficult to
Now, the day my mother left, i realised how shit life is to me... oh no, not because she left and i was sad about it, but because i had a “domestic accident” on the very same night she had just gone, and god knows i could have done with someone being there with me. here’s what happened: on the day she left, my friend marianne called and asked
What's the name of the game? does it mean anything to you?...
On tuesday 7 february, the school organised a pub quiz night for staff. some of you out there know very well how keen i am on taking part in this kind of shit, and so when david – the spanish teacher – asked me to be part of his team, i almost wet myself with excitement! now, i must confess that i wasn’t really sure about our team’s potenti

In my desperate attempt to see everything i can in egypt before i f*** off for good – oh yes, i can’t wait! – marie-eve, mario and i went to alexandria last weekend, as none of us had ever been there and it’s meant to be a cool egyptian city... well at least, it’s got history. anyway, what was meant to be a lovely day trip ended up being

On saturday 16 june, marie-eve and i went to shanghai’s gay pride. now i stop you right before you start picturing half naked men on floats!... we’re in china! yes, they’re ‘tolerant’ enough to allow a gay pride, but indoors please! no demonstration, thanks!... which means that what they refer to as gay pride, is only a gay night in an op

Now, you may wonder what happened after my trip to mount sinai – or not. well, i’ll tell you anyway. as mubarak resigned and things started to get back to normal in cairo, our school reopened. isabelle, my flatmate, came back from canada on friday 25 february, only to pack her bags and leave for good the next week, as she had experienced modern
On saturday 10 march, marie-eve and i were having a lovely meal at a tapas bar, when marie-eve received a text message and started some frantic texting while laughing her head off. as i was inquiring about it all, she explained that a male colleague of hers had seen some pictures of me on the internet and was keen on meeting me... i was flattered b
