Ramadan Drinks in Downtown Cairo, EGYPT | مشاريب رمضان في وسط البلد

    Ramadan is almost over, and before this festive month ends, let’s grab some special drinks Egyptians love to have during this holiday and wander the streets of downtown Cairo as the crowds come out at night in Egypt’s capital city.

    Want to donate to the channel? You can buy me a shawarma! 😂 But really, I just found out this website “buy me a coffee” exists and created an account, because, well, why not? I really just appreciate your support by watching my videos and I’m not asking you to donate, but, if you feel like it, now there’s a place you can. Donations will probably just go to me making more street food videos. Here’s the link: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/gventures

    Welcome to the channel! My name’s Gisselle, I’m a budget traveler and have been to 6 out of the 7 continents, visiting 20+ countries, living for some time in Sydney, Australia as well as in Saigon, Vietnam. I am currently based in Cairo, Egypt and exploring all this beautiful country has to offer, while visiting nearby countries as well. I am a lover of language and a culturally curious lady just making my way through life one day at a time. I live to learn, I love to travel and explore, try new things and meet interesting people anywhere and everywhere in the world. Come along with me as I solo travel the globe and discover fascinating new places, try delicious local food, meet lovely people, and share a moment in time on this beautiful planet, our Earth.

    1. I wish I could experience Ramadan and Eid in Egypt 🥰 I think it will be possible after we get our own place there 🙂 We travel there every year, hubby goes usually twice a year bcuz he has 2 teen age kids there with ex wife 😃
      Last year we went on holiday to Sharm and now in Feb we were in Hurghada ❤

    2. Hi from the uk. I love watching your videos. I’m going back to Egypt in September. It will be my 7th time there. I love it. Can I ask what job you do pls?

    3. Gisselle, thank you for posting another 'adventurous' video on the streets of Cairo, which I enjoyed very much!
      What a shame that you lost your earlier video because of the microphone failure. I bet you were cursing when you realised (as I would have done also)!
      Anyway, I certainly do not want to miss your Eid al-Fitr video in a few days time, with more exotic desserts, and more excitement from the hectic streets of your favourite city!!
      Take care.
      😀William

    4. You are a strong, resilient girl. It is not an easy job, even for me, originally Egyptian, to shoot and record at busy cairo streets, so really good job well done ❤

    5. I share your videos with my little boy and my little girl, as despite of them originally Egyptian but born and raised in the west they can understand English more than Arabic, so your videos are really doing me and my family great favour, introducing some aspects of the Egyptian culture and Egyptian tradition to the next generation, thank you

    6. Hello miss! Been curious about something. Is Arabic the official Egyptian language or is there no Egyptian language and only different dialects of Arabic in Egypt? I've been very confused about this.

    7. Another really enjoyable video. Thank you. Yes tamarinds is very hard to describe, I came up with flat coke mixed with raspberry juice n even thats not right. Think nicest when icy cold. Out of curiosity, what do you do with the drinks you only took a sip out of?

    8. Good Morning Gisselle from little me in Melbourne ,as always loved every minute of your video ,this gets me every time how when you are talking the reaction of the passers by is priceless lol by the looks of their deserts they are very sweeet you would need coffee , in hence saying this feels so exciting to go walkabouts so much life at night love it well till next time sending you lots of Hugs Evie xoxo

    9. Hello Geisel and thanks for another pleasant video from the old country. I have so much to say and ask you so thank you for your patience. I remember as a child my beloved late father would take me into downtown to an ice cream restaurant called Gropy. He would leave me there and he would go upstairs to his tailor to have his business suites made. I don’t know if you or any of your Egyptian followers have heard of this restaurant? I don’t know if they are still in business, this would be about 60 years ago when I was there last. Another store specializing is Basbousa and Konafa is in Alexandria right at the main train station called-translation- Station of the Sand. If you ever go back to Alexandria, pay them a visit if they are still in business, you won’t be disappointed. Another thing I have noticed in your video is how clean the streets are in this particular area. Certainly much better than my memories from the sixties. I find the most sad thing about Cairo are the street children, that little girl in your video trying to sell you something. That I have always found difficult and disturbing to see. I am glad that has improved too. If you have a chance, can you take some videos of New Cairo that is being built out in the desert. I am thinking of moving back to Cairo and purchasing a condominium there. I would like your impressions of the area. Thanks again for your videos and your time making them. BTW, regarding the Zalabia, by beloved late mother used to make that for me but she used to call it translation The Bread of the Judge. I don’t know if it is the same thing,perhaps you can ask one of the locals.

    10. Have you done a video on tipping in Egypt.. don’t want to insanely overtip and don’t want to look cheap. What would be a good tip to give a guide for say a four hour tour.. and meals..in general

    11. Happy Eid, Try Alameen, Marsa Matrooh, Sinai also is gorgeous.. I'm surprisingly happy you actually choose to live in Egypt two years ago as lots of people recently didn't like it here that much when they came.. there is a guy name KurtCaz he had a bad experience with scammers when he came.

    12. I am now in Hurgadha my first time in Egypt and in a few days traveling to Cairo. Your video's have been so helpfull to me. Although my husband is Palestinian and speaks perfect Arabic, i wanted to see and know things for myself. Thanks so much. Hope to see you maybe in Cairo. We are going there to bring my sister in law from Gaza insha Allah. Salam from soha (motorbiker from Holland) and mansour ❤
