Traveling Egypt - January 2016

Cairo, Aswan, Ab shimbel, Luxor, Huryghada

I moved to Pecs Hungary in July 2013 to learn medicine. I was planning to go to Egypt during Winter Vacation. Because my travel guide book said winter time is the best time to visit, because summer is too hot in Egypt.

After I managed to finish all the exams in the 5th semester, I flied to Egypt. I did not know such a great thing waiting for me..., which is a great underwater world and Nemo (of Finding Nemo (Disney)).


My Path Scalable Pinch-In/Pinch-Out Map

Main Purpose: Pyramid! Ancient Temples of Egypt.
But it turned out that Diving in the Red Sea was the best because it was so beautiful, oh, beautiful is not enough, also wonderful, fish are cute, simply put, beyond words.


Pyramid! Giza, Cairo

Red Sea, Huryghada

Temple of Philae(Isis)

I had planed to join a desert tour going to southwest area of Egypt. (If I had joined the tour, then the map would have shown a "leg" of southwest direction.) But unfortunately, I heard, the area was closed for foreigners because of security reasons of 5th aniversary of Egyptian Revolution of 2011.

That was turned out to be fortune. Because I could stay longer in the Red Sea and dive more :)

Desert Tour should have been fun, but I know, somehow, I like diving more than desert tour Diving was that awesome!

Also very interesting was, diving physiology. Many things happens in our body in the water, especially due to pressure change. It is not only interesting, but also a MUST to know, because the physiology will cause serious consequence such as Ear drum rapture or Lung over-expansion and even kill you if you do not handle it properly. This is interesting especially for a future doctor.
