Egypt Photo Essay

The Great Pyramids of Giza

Egypt is a land of history and magic. We spent a whopping five months living there and it was definitely an unforgettable period of my life with extreme highs and lows. It is surreal to walk through history in the steps of ancient pharaohs and slaves along the Nile River from Cairo to Luxor to Aswan. I couldn’t possibly capture the experience of Egypt in just a few words, so I hope this photo essay can transport you through time!
