Hi, I’m Su and this blog is an extra to my website about the monuments of Egypt www.egyptsites.co.uk
I live in Cornwall, UK, and as much as I love it here I also love to get away once or twice a year to Egypt. I am passionate about the history of Egypt and its archaeology and my main hobby is photography. Over the past twelve years of travelling around Egypt I have taken thousands of photographs - re-visited the sites over and over to get that perfect picture. Now I’ve graduated to digital images and that’s my excuse for visiting all my favourite places all over again.
In 1995 I started a journal of each trip. The first visit of course made the biggest impression on me, but I kept writing each time I went there and this is what this blog is about. It’s a record of my visits, how the country has changed over the years and a bit of history about the sites thrown in. There will also be links to my photographs which don’t appear on my other website, to give a taste of the country rather than just the Egyptian Monuments.
I hope you enjoy reading it!
Su
Dear Su,
My name is Mona Hossny, I’m Egyptian and I work at Cultnat (Center for documentation of Cultural and Natural Heritage) in Egypt. We are the ones that did “Eternal Egypt” web site and now we’re working on a magazine also called “Eternal Egypt”. It is a bit like the “National Geographic” in the sense that it is pictorial, articles based on very high quality pictures. It is about Egyptian cultural and natural heritage throughout all historic times. I’m writing here to ask if you would like to write articles for us and provide photography. Through your site and blog I sensed your immense passion for Egypt and it would be an honor to have your work on our pages. Thank you for reading my message and I’ll be waiting for your kind reply.
Best regards,
Mona Hossny
