You would have thought that I had enough of the Middle East with already having visited Qatar twice over the last year. Nope, the first two trips weren't enough so I recently made my third venture across the Atlantic to the sands of Cairo, Egypt. Despite my playful reluctance to place my body in a plane and propel myself across the seas again, I was eager to visit a city that I had only seen through television and history books. The trip itself was for business and trust me, three days of pure recruiting can take it's toll. Luckily for us, we had a colleague that was joining us who had lived in Cairo for a period of time and was able to facilitate our tourist-like behavior as we visited historical landmarks like the pyramids.

Wow, I bet the title of this blog is probably the last thing you'd expect from me. What can I say, I'm not much of an active traveler, but get my fair share of USAir miles every once in a while, usually in mass amounts. Where am I this time? Qatar, specifically, Doha.
