Turn Right At The Sarcophagus

An Egyptian Adventure

De: Merri Melde

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Despite being a seasoned solo world backpack traveler, Merri Melde discovered a divine new way of traveling after snapping up the chance to visit Egypt with friends, staying with an expat and her countless entertaining rat terriers in her home in the countryside outside of Giza near Cairo. Taken from her travel journals and photos, Melde uses her unique story-telling ability to recount a visit there as an inside-outsider, helping to put on a horse ride in the desert (where the trail turned right at a random sarcophagus), visiting the famous Giza Pyramids, experiencing the famous Khan Al-Khalili market, exploring the backroads of Giza, touring the Sinai, experiencing sunrise in a Bedouin camp under Mount Sinai, and galloping a horse through the desert around lesser-known pyramids and ancient tombs. Told with humor and insight, this delightful chronicle of Melde’s unplanned Egyptian adventure gives readers a glimpse of both native Egyptians’ lives and the lives of a diverse expat community, who all have riding horses as their common bond. Author of numerous books and short stories, Turn Right at the Sarcophagus is the first of Melde’s travel journals put into print. There’s never been a better time for Armchair Travel!
