August 12, 2017:
I have been retired for five years. I am seventy years old. I am male in good health and well being. I am divorced and without dependents. I wish to relocate to Egypt in a few weeks or months - as soon as I think and know that I am ready to move and I have prepared for the move.

I plan to relocate with the bare minimum of personal items and physical possessions.

I wish to relocate to a community in Alexandria, Cairo, or Luxor areas. I wish to live in a secure building that is close to shopping, medical facilities and transportation (locally, within Egypt, and internationally).

I wish to eventually employ a housekeeper, a cook, and a caretaker.

I ask you to respond with your thoughts and suggestions related to my move.

I visited Cairo Egypt 27 January thru 01 February 2018. I stayed in a hotel - the Grand Royal in downtown Cairo, in the Muslim district. I needed a very inexpensive hotel and I had that. Too much for too little. Can someone suggest an inexpensive hotel - less than USD 20 per night that is clean, safe and nice?
