I was gone for only two weeks but it was such a long two weeks. All these people who go for months or years, I envy them. I left for Chicago for two years but knew I had to return to NYC. It's home, but that's changing. But I get homesick and by two weeks I needed to come home; and after that time I really did live in Egypt. But seeing what I did and meeting who I did......I feel like I wasn't there long enough (so the other travellers tell me) but there was xmas and my money was running out and I was weary.....but what I experienced was a lot and it shook me up. I am so upset and the inhumanity I saw and the suffering that was so unnecessary and wrong ..........
