Parents: Your experience with schools in Hurghada??? by azeera
I would like to ask the PARENTS, if there are any present in this forum, to share their experience with Hurghadan Schools with me. As we all know, if our children don't have an Egyptian father, they don't qualify to get enrolled into the National ...
Homeschool is definitely a great idea if you are moving to Hurghada. Schools are garbage here comparing to Western standards. But comparing to Egyptian standards (dunno if they do have any), then they are great! Huh! Yeah great and anyone would ... Read More

Is life in Hurghada similar to life in the US? Can someone tell me is there is a good hospital with a good ER ? Is there any good national schools and how much does it cost? Is it safe to live there? I really hope someone can help us out because we ...

al ahyaa living by johnnymalta
Can anyone give any tips to a potential property purchaser in al ahyaa as to day to day living. Shopping in particular seems to be,according to other sites I have read, a nightmare having to go on a major trip to find a supermarket. Hopefully ...

Best thing to do is to ignore such things. See, pigs exist, so do ignorant people. There is a saying that says, the caravan moves and the dogs bark. So the barking of the dogs won't harm the caravan moving, they are just dogs and that's what they ... Read More
