Sorry about any inconvinience and I’ll see you again soon on my new website Excited, - Mina Mahrous
Read MoreDon’t Tell My Mother – Part III – Final Lies
In Part I of this story, the whole lie began, and I was “kind of” stuck in a city while again lying to my parents and telling them I’m in a totally different cities so they wouldn’t freak out about safety.

Well I know my parents don’t check out the blog, but at least I hope any of those who know my parents wouldn’t tell THAT SPECIFIC story in front them.

She has been on so many pilgrimages, all of them only on foot, very long routes, and...
Read MoreThat Small Particle called Sand
Inspired by last Friday’s twitter #FriFotos topic, and later on by AdventurousKate’s post about sand photos, I went through some of my albums and figured out I have loads of photos of sand, well some of them are pure sand, The great Sand Sea in Egypt. Some of them are your normal sand beach photos. Some are kind of rocky/sandy beaches. So I thought I could also share some of them. Well my favourite of them atleast. Siwa, Egypt. Well most of my sand pictures are in that place. It is one of my favourite places on planet earth. Cold Lake, Siwa, Egypt. As the name implies, the water...
