Apartment with a View in Doha, Qatar

This has become almost an annual event - posting a video of our new apartment. Last year was the first year in ten years that we didn't move. This year, the contract our school had with the apartment building expired. So, company housing moved - further away from school, but in a much better location. We love our apartment so much.

Instead of me writing about it, I will just let you watch the video for yourself. Let us know what you think.

Here are pictures of the view from our apartment:

Our New Apartment in Maadi, Cairo

We did it again...we moved. We have moved every year for the last seven years! What's wrong with us?! And, you all wonder why I don't keep things. This. This is why. Haha!

We arrived back to Cairo the evening of August 3rd and promptly moved into this apartment the morning of August 4th. We had a very gracious friend store all of our stuff while we were in Europe. Another wonderful set of friends picked up the few remaining items we left in the old apartment the morning we left for Europe.

It's been two weeks since the move, and I think we are all settled in. We like this apartment soooooo much more than the other one! We are starting this school year on a very positive note that will hopefully carry through the whole year.

Our Apartment in Cairo, Egypt

We've been in our apartment just shy of 30 days now. I guess it's about time to post a video of our apartment.

We arrived in Cairo late on a Thursday night, and the very next day we set off apartment hunting. Our school gives us a housing stipend, but we had to find our own place to live. We were put in groups of about three couples. We had a realtor and a returning teacher (or two) with us and we were off, looking at apartments in an area of town called Maadi (pronounced: ma-dee). We looked at several apartments and found one we liked on the very first day. All of the places we looked at were fully furnished, and ours was no exception. The only thing we needed to buy to be able to stay our first night was bedding, towels, and toilet paper!

Let me know if you have any questions! Enjoy the tour!
