Why is Egypt one of the most important importation centers of the world? A few of my teacher friends taught in Cairo. They have some great things to say about it. I heard that they like to bargain aggressively in Egypt, so don't get scared if there's yelling involved when you want to buy a souvenir. Oooh, can you guys write something about the food you plan to eat in these places?
