Jodphur, Burano and a Nubian Village – how color overcomes the desert sands of Egypt
One of the facts about Egypt that is hard to ignore is that the sand gets everywhere. And I mean everywhere. Heaven help you if you leave a window open, or a door ajar. It is that incredibly fine sand that seems to be able to permeate every nook and cranny, but also leaves a calling card of fine yellow dusting across everything it touches.
If you can imagine the world covered in sandpaper – slightly abrasive but ensuring that everything else is beautifully smooth -then this is close to what it is like living in Egypt! In fact, on second thoughts, it makes me wonder why Egypt’s main export is cotton and not sandpaper!
