You are kindly invited to El Rehla - a one-week learning journey along Egypt’s North Coast (Mediterranean Sea) via Cairo and the Oasis of Faiyum from March 27th to April 2nd. We will make stops and immerse in the coastal town of Marsa Matruh known for its lagoons and white sand beaches to connect with the sea and each other, continue to the historical porty city of Alexandria to learn about attempts to archive, preserve and translate Alexandria’s history and fate as a ‘sinking city’ in the face of climate change, move on to Egypt’s (for the time being) capital city of Cairo, notably Fatimid Cairo and the western Cairene province of Giza with its pyramids, and round up our journey with a visit to the oasis of Faiyum, notably Tunis village known for its pottery and the Valley of the Whales known for the whale fossils found there.
For any questions, please get in touch Karim Yassin, Harsh and/or Che-Vanni
