I visited egypt last 2011 and and have plan again next year Inshallah.

b4 i visited egypt last year,all of my friends(with other nationalities) told me to becareful 
bcoz egypt is a dangerous place,lots of alibaba and so on...,that i should placed my bag all the time infront of me and hold it on my chest and so,so,so...:(

And all of my friend too so scared coz im going egypt not only to visit,or tour but to meet the man i knew just on net,Funny coz even our egyptian doctor who resides in cairo warned me not to meet this guy,coz according to him,man u meet from net they are not true.and he even told me i knew it very well coz iam also an egyptian,and i also have a fight with other egyptian doctor coz he told me im so stupid searching man very far,and believing with this man,they dont gave me any support,infact iam visiting their own country.
With all this ,i started to have second thought,but i still followed  my heart.Here it is; a short story of mine going egypt from saudi...

In the airport on baggage check-in,every staff looking at me and telling me,saudia flight going to philippines is not here,you must go on the other counter (which is far from that counter)i feel embarrassed coz everyone is looking at me and i looked at them too,and i realized that im the only filipino out there:D

when i was on the plane going to egypt im sitting beside with an old man,i thought im safe coz he treated me so nicely and served my food as if im his daughter and he feel we are closed,i really feel uneasy and wondering.i never talked to him but he did,i cover my face and act like im sleeping as my way of avoiding him,but with my surprised after sometimes felt something on my chest right away i removed the cover on my face and stared at him,he said sleep again,i dont know what happened and what he did to me,i was so scared and furious,he even told me if we will arrived in egypt we will take taxi together and go with him in the hotel,on that time i really want to go back,i want to believe that il not be safe in egypt.when the plane landed in egypt,he is trying to help me get my things with him,then i told him someone with me,but he dont listen he is following me,i walked too fast in the egypt airport and i saw him still following at me,i saw a comfort room and i went inside, stayed there for long time crying,i asked myself why that old man like that,with my abaya and my hijab ,why he dont respect me.

I dont want to go out from the comfort room anymore,Until i noticed my mobile ringing,it was the egyptian man that i love(the reason why im there)he is so worried why im still not going out,i  didnt tell him about what was happened,im trying to be fine,and prepared myself for what will happen next.....

All my fear my worries was removed when i was with him,he treated me nicely,respect me as a woman,never took me for granted,All the time we are on the nile river and going back to hotel late at night,(he got his own room in the hotel )and walking on tahrir square and in the museum Alhamdulillah i feel safe ,people are good around us.i dont need to hold my bag infront of me,he even carry it for me,i never went out and stay late outside in my country but i did in egypt,i never trust and feel safe with some man i knew in my place but i feel it only with my egyptian man,,Thanks Allah for giving him to me.now i can say with my very own experienced egypt is safe with an egyptian you can trust.

I LOVE EGYPT!!!

Your story reinforces the known fact that everywhere there are good people and bad people.

There is no nation of angels, and definitely there is no nation of devils .... just human beings.
