Hi everyone,
I have a little problem concerning staying in Egypt after Wikimania: I have
guaranteed lodging with a friend of my family who lives in Cairo, but as far
as I know she'll be working all day and therefore not available for
sightseeing. Now, I am the first to admit that I am the most scatterbrained,
absent-minded person ever; I also freely admit that I get lost in
supermarkets (even the one I use every week). I really, truly do. I am
infamous for turning a street corner and then wondering which way I had come
from. Family members place bets on how far I am from my intended destination
whenever I go out. Honestly. I am afraid that if I go out alone in Cairo I
will get seriously lost.
My point is, are there any Wikimedians thinking of staying on in
Cairo/elsewhere in Egypt after Wikimania? And if there is, would they mind
having me tag along while sightseeing?
I asked on the Wikimania IRC channel if it was OK to send this e-mail to the
list. They said yes, but I apologize if anyone finds it too off-topic. Feel
free to e-mail me directly if you wish to do so.
Happy editing,
--Maria
