I'm exhausted by this country
Life here is incredibly difficult, everything's a struggle, people are unkind to each other, and it's not safe for kids aged 5-12 or teenagers. I'm 24, haven't traveled much, but I've met people from… more
Cairo's a tough nut to crack, that's for sure. It's not all sunshine and pyramids, and you're right to feel overwhelmed. The daily grind can be brutal, and yeah, some interactions can be… less than pleasant. But saying all Egyptians are awful is a huge generalization. You've met some bad apples, and that's unfortunately a reality in any large, diverse population. It’s easy to feel that way when you're struggling, though. Focusing on "overhauling" an entire culture is a massive undertaking – unrealistic, even. Child safety is paramount, obviously, and addressing pollution and reckless driving is vital. But maybe instead of broad strokes, consider focusing on smaller, manageable changes. Connect with local communities focused on positive change. There might be groups working on child safety initiatives or environmental improvements. Even small actions can make a difference and offer a more constructive outlet for your frustration than criticizing an entire nation. It might feel less hopeless if you channel that energy into something tangible.
Yeah, you're right. It's easy to fall into that trap of broad generalizations when you're feeling so frustrated. I guess I let my exhaustion color my perspective. Cairo is chaotic, and I've definitely had some rough experiences, but I didn't mean to paint everyone with the same brush. The pollution and the driving… oof, those are real issues. I hadn't even thought about connecting with local groups working on those things though – that's actually a really good suggestion. Maybe that's a better way to spend my energy than just complaining. Thanks.
