Program Details

Usually around 4 hours a day of help would be sufficient for 4 fays a week. Usually the work needed would start between 10 am until 2 pm, then you are free for the rest of the day!

Activities & Shift

Out of the working hours, you will get to know more about the Egyptian culture. I will make sure to immerse you into the community. You will get to meet and chat with my family and friends. I will take you out whenever I am available on weekends to show you around Cairo. Depending on how long you will stay hopefully you will have learned some Arabic by the end of your stay.

Rules

You will have your own room with a shared toilet right next to it. Just make sure to look after yourself and the room. Make sure to please keep both the room and toilet tidy & clean. You will be provided with clean bed sheets. We can provide homemade breakfast and lunch with a reasonable cost.

We live in a newly urban area far from the busy streets of Cairo. We live in a relatively new area on the outskirts of Cairo. It is a much more quiet residential area. There are many commercial places around with restaurants and supermarkets. It won't be an issue to get anything since almost everything delivers to our place. There are also a couple of malls where you go can go for cinema, bowling, arcade and there is a amusement park also close by. We are currently 3 people living in our house (My parents and I). We have a basketball court if you are into that we can play some games!
