I am considering retiring abroad and  Egypt is my first choice.  I am single and this would be a major decision for me.
Any feedback on this topic would be appreciated

Hello Priscilla,

I really appreciate your willingness to help!  The following topics are what I need assistance with:

1.  Places in Egypt/Cairo where expats live?
2. Cost of a one bedroom apt in nice area?
3. What type of visa would I need to stay 1 to 6 months?
4. Is there an expat retirement community there?
5. Are there any vegan restaurants there.
Any other information you could share will be most appreciated.

Thanks again,
Tina

2) if rent it would probably cost 147-176 US dollars converted from egp.
3)about the visa not quite sure.
4) yes there is an expat retirement community in Egypt.
5)there is a lot of vegan restaurants in Egypt actually my sister is a vegan too.
