sofie re Egyptian

IF he treats you different when you are in Egypt, then don't go. I think you both need to sit down and discuss the situation and tell him your fears. If he knows that the move will make your life unhappy then maybe he will change his mind and be willing to stay here and work harder at his career.

I am getting married to an Egyptian muslim in late Oct. or early Nov. we will be in Egypt for a honey moon for three weeks. I have never been there before. Is there anything that I should know. He has already told me that i should not leave the house without him. Which is fine with me.

I don't know any one else in the entire country, and it is big and strange. I am blond and blue eyed. I am sure i would stand out in a crowd and be open to harassment if i was out alone. Is there any other thing i should be careful or worried about ?
