tomorrow

October 23, 2009

Don’t ask how I know this, but tomorrow will be my 2,500th day spent either totally or partially in Cairo. I guess that’s the equivalent of staying put for just over 7 years without ever leaving.

Which means that I have spent a total of almost 2 years on the road while living here. Or roughly speaking: I’ve been in Cairo around 70% of the time, and out of Cairo around 30% of the time. Is that a healthy ratio? It feels like it, at least.

[ADDENDUM: It’s closer to 80% of the time in Cairo and 20% on the road. Basic math skills sometimes suffer just before going to sleep.]
