New members of the Egypt forum, introduce yourselves here - 2024

Hi all,

I'm Justine, currently in the USA, but contemplating a move to Sharm El-Sheikh, or least buying a property there for us, friends and family.  By us, I mean my Egyptian husband of 22 years, and our 2 older kids.  I'm not sure we would move permanently to Sharm, due to health needs, but we'd like a place to spend the winter months each year. 

Looking forward to getting to know people already there.  We'd love to know the best spots to stay or buy apartments/villas.  We were just there and saw how much growth is happening!

Take care!

I am from Canada and I am planning on moving to egypt next year  the whole world are moving to egypt ...

Hello everyone!

I currently live in the UK, hoping to move out to Sharm el Sheikh to join my partner who works on the MFO base. I am looking for work in education, learning and development and I have worked in education for 3 years. I am also currently completing my TEFL qualification!

If anyone knows of any jobs going in Sharm, please drop me a message! Would love to hear from you!

Hi,

I'm an American married to a Nubian-Egyptian. I now live in California, but visit Egypt about once a year for extended stays.

I have lived in Egypt from 1985 to 1991 and from 2003 to 2010.

Next visit will be in May 2024 and I plan to stay for a few weeks.

Cheers,

Michael and Mona

Hi Justine! Im Marci. Im a 52yr old, RN, in the USA also making my way to Egypt! I'm a grandmother with adult children and have been visiting the country since 2021. Im there at least twice a year - working my way up to 3 times a year. Looking to live there a few months out of the year as well. Just reaching out as you mentioned you are looking to make friends, and so am I!  I will be there from June 15-29, 2024 and again from 12/1/24 - 12/26/24.  I actually do meditations and small retreats in the desert but am looking to gain some peace and serenity near the ocean.  Please, don't be afraid to say hello and let me know if you need any nursing assistance while you are there. I've been a nurse over 25yrs.  This is not a service promotion by any means. I really just want to make real friends and have a sense of community while I'm over there.  Best to you and your family on your endeavors!
