Cairo was a special 3-day stop for me on my route between Johannesburg and Munich in 1996. To see the pyramids with ones own eyes makes the world seem a smaller place.

Cairo is the cultural and also geographical center of the globe! Here east meets west and north meets south. As a modern city, it has its own beautifull meening and way of life

Favourite spots:
On the top of the world with new friends.
