  • On my first ever trip to Egypt and to Africa as a whole, I search for the story behind ancient Nubian language and its people. Along the way, I experience the stunning Red Sea coast in Hurghada, the ancient temples of Luxor, and the beauty of the Nile in Aswan.
    Locations in this video:
    Hurghada
    Luxor
    Aswan
    Nubian Village

    I'm an Egyptian living in the US and wanted to just say that your Arabic is super impressive for someone who taught themself! I've always been curious about minority cultures and languages in Egypt, but there isn't much academia or public interest, so I appreciate this content! I think you'd be interested to research the Berber language (Siwi Amazigh) in Northwest Egypt.

      No "minority culture" - INDIGENOUS! Arabs invaded and brought their language and Islam - as they always do when they INVADE. Arabs respect no ones culture but their own.

Keep up the good work and Keep looking into the Nubian languages of our people so our Heroic Ancient Queens can have their history deciphered as Egypt did and allow their story to finally be told.

Deadass he inspired me to pursue language learning too a high degree and not as something I "try" By the time I am 18 I'm hoping to be Advanced in 5 languages, but w'ell see, nonetheless it was literally a major turning point and a realisation that I need to put effort into my goals and pursuits in order to achieve them and TJ really lives by that I think.

    Very Historical experience, from Cairo, Luxor, Aswan...
    We sailed the Nile River on a riverboat...
    Visited the Nubian Village, too. The residents of one home welcomed us with dance & music.. And, yes, there was a crocodile 😊
    Hibiscus tea, served hot or cold, was the beverage of choice.. Quite Delicious..
