CURRENT MISSION

See what happens next.

ABOUT ME

I divide my time between Cairo, Luxor, and a town in Middle Egypt called Sohag. Not much else to do there, but when I'm in Cairo I concentrate on tango, salsa, painting, home improvement, and my plants. The cat comes behind me and undoes what I do.

PHILOSOPHY

See things, do things.
