Back on the road

As I'm typing this entry, in the holding room waiting for the boarding call to be made, the feeling of excitement is growing stronger. Today marks another milestone in my travel tales: my second solo trip. This time round I'll be able to cross out one country in my list of major destinations to visit - Egypt!

This is also my longest trip yet: 4 days in Hanoi and 14 days in Cairo means that I'll be experiencing life on two continents in the next 18 days. And with the possibility of not only witnessing the majestic desert, but also spending a night amid the magnificent sand dunes, this could well be my most adventurous jaunt for the coming years.
