I’ve wanted to visit Egypt since I was in grade six and my class did an extensive unit on the country and its history (Pharoah Hatshepsut was particularly fascinating to me as a young feminist!). I finally got to go in October 2022.

My articles so far:

• For TIME Magazine: Giza and Saqqara, Egypt — one of TIME’s World’s Greatest Places 2023 (and the cover story).
  • Reprinted by the Colombus Ledger-Enquirer: Giza and Saqqara.
  • TIME for Kids excerpted part of my article for their roundup aimed at encouraging kids to learn about the world.
• For TravelAge West
  • Tour review: A women-only tour of Egypt with Trafalgar. “Goddesses, yalla yalla! Let’s go, let’s go!” Trafalgar tour director Amira Hosny made sure we saw the best of Egypt with a focus on women’s roles in modern and ancient society.
