Cairo 2008
Here we come…
I just got word from the American University in Cairo that I was admitted to their graduate school today. So, it’s back to Cairo in a few months to do an MA in Arabic with a specialization in Islamic Studies.
Now I am just trying to revel in congratulating myself before beginning to panic about how much this is about to cost.
Then again, money isn’t everything. Not to mention the logistics of completely uprooting myself. This will be a little different than last time: I still had a sort-of home-base in the States last year. Now my home base will be my backpack.
Exploring the world, one taxi-ride at a time, I guess. Wish me luck.
