Paris...
This summer I finally realized a dream of mine. I have always wanted to go on a vacation that was not some type of family trip. I wanted to feel independent. I wanted to do something with the sole purpose of enjoying myself. I wanted to spend shitloads of money pleasing myself. I wanted it all to be about me...
All my trips have been to visit family. To spend time with everyone so that no one is offended. I wanted to make my own plan and agenda...
So, this year, after I went to visit my family in the USA I came back to Egypt. I emptied my suitcases and packed another one.. I was finally going to do it. Ticket and passport in hand I left my house and headed to Paris. It was the trip I was waiting a very long time to take. A part of me thought it was too good to be true. I was waiting for the flight to be cancelled, for my ticket to be wrong, for them to lose my suitcase, I felt like it was too perfect and something was bound to ruin my dream trip... nothing did.
It was one of the most amazing experiences of my lifetime. I felt different there and since I have been back.
