How do I get out of here?!? (Egyptian driving 😅) | Egypt Vlog 197 | السواقه بالطريقه المصريه

I though your bike had broke down when I read the title ,glad you only got stuck in a wall! that's a huge complex and so cheap with a pool wow,just what you need after a stressful day.

[@AlexOhioo]

I love your adventures. I get anxious about your driving in that crazy country. You are a tough woman. God bless.❤

[@RezadentRaven]

And nary a scratch on your trusty steed. I sub to very few channels as an old lady adventurer, but yours is just right on. Thanks for being a real and true spirit!

This was a Mad Max little experience and adventure 😂😂

[@cherifbar]

This sure ain’t the Egypt I left 60 years ago. Those properties you stayed at are just as impressive as Key West or Fort Lauderdale. I envy you, I wish I was still young and strong, I would have loved to rediscover the country of my birth on a motorcycle or car. It is too bad they don’t have a general aviation industry in Egypt, i would love to rent a small plane and discover Egypt by air. I am grateful for your work on KZbin because I can travel through Egypt vicariously along with you.

[@Gventures]

😅 Thank you Hesham, I appreciate that. I always do figure things out (eventually), and even the bad times just make for funny stories (later) 😆 I like exploring and doing things solo, and apart of that means making mistakes, taking wrong turns, struggling in Arabic, etc. It might be easier if I was with someone who knew the roads better or spoke fluent Arabic, but it wouldn't be the same experience as the one I am having now, and I am loving this, the good and even the bad. I wouldn't have it any other way. Thanks again 🙏

[@mozedition3339]

Fascinating to say the least. Prices are decent and i think, like i said they're all done vacationing for the season. Maybe next spot or the downtown tour will prove otherwise. That little Great Escape was epic. I figured well, she is Gventures, what else would you expect. Lol. Good for you!! Your attitude is wonderful just FYI. I would have lost it a few times already. Lol. Don't ask why. Anyway, it's petty amazing that there are that many buildings and that many apartments and places to stay in Alamein. That's impressive. I really hope you can get your deposit back without headache. Good luck and safe travels Evel. 😂

[@Gventures]

Yeah it's off season so the prices are lower, and it's a ghost town 😅 But I knew it would be. I wouldn't come here though, even in the summer. If I were to go anywhere along the North Coast for the summer, it would be to Alexandria or Marsa Matruh, with friends or my bf (by bus😅). Heheh that would have been such a silly way to get stuck, thankfully I was able to squeeze through without any scratches to my bike or the police coming by. That would have been awkward scene 🤣 And I don't need any tickets. Anyways, it's stupid they don't make more exits or access to the side roads along the highway. Bad design imo. Thanks Mozedition 😄🙏😎

[@mozedition3339]

@@Gventures I just watched the latest, I will go comment there. But just real quick, yeah, I think if a family or a group of friends wanted to get away from it all, this would be an ideal spot for a week of absolute relaxation. And yes, 100% Marsa Matruh would be the place to rent something cheap and enjoy crystal clear, shallow shores. Hopefully it's still the same as what I remember years ago. Yup, lots of things on the stupid side of things for sure. One day... God willing, one day G. Stay safe.

[@FPrill]

I have to agree with one of the previous commentators, that nobody speaks any English although these compounds are predominantly marketed to foreigners. Amazing.

[@Gventures]

Are these compounds marketed to foreigners? I thought they were marketed to rich Egyptians.

[@JanaNovotna-ou1ih]

What are you talking about. She was in Marina and Porto. None of these compounds are "marketed for foreigners "

[@FPrill]

@@JanaNovotna-ou1ih my apologies if I'm wrong on this. I have seen some of these developments also pitched at foreigners. Nonetheless they all look like ghost towns.

[@MohamedElHaddadGOT]

@@FPrill You're correct in thinking so but the ones you mean are the newer compounds, she's still basically visiting the older ones till now, but the new TMG group ones and the ones in Sidi Abd El Rahman are the ones more targeted at foreigners and Egyptians with more than one passport. And anyway the security there wouldn't speak english anyway as they hire mostly people who didn't continue school or didn't go to Uni. as they're the ones who would accept these 12-hour shift security jobs.

[@JanaNovotna-ou1ih]

​@@FPrillYeah perhaps you've seen one of those future projects coz yes those are aimed for foreigners as well. The whole coast is a ghost town right now coz no one goes there after October and no one will come back before June so everything is shut down (services, shops, restaurants)

[@KrazyKittyTailz]

Nice Job navigating the roadway there, whoever did the urban planning there needs to go do something else cuz, that highway w/o exits sucks. 😼stay safe!

Why you came out of marina so fast ??.. It has seven gates and alamain is right beside the seventh gate.. You should had taken a tour inside marina ..show us the fancy villas infront of the sea... We never see what's behind the long walls...try to do that when you come back

Eh, that's okay, it's not tiktok

[@FPrill]

I dont see anyone, anywhere in these compounds. Why is that? Any idea? Even the Highway is empty. Everything looks like these famous chinese Ghost towns.

[@Gventures]

Well firstly, because New Alamein is just that - new. They are still building the city, so it's still in the early stages of development. But another BIG reason is - it's off season! Everyone flocks to these areas in the summer, to go swimming and enjoy the beaches. Because it is winter now, it is kind of like a ghost town. But of course I am not riding my motorcycle to Siwa in the summer, so we get a look at these towns when there isn't much happening.

Use Google Translate to Arabic on your phone when communicating with Egyptians so they can understand you.

[@Gventures]

Yeah, I do use a translator app if I really, really need to. But most of the time I try to communicate in Arabic, it's good practice for me. I think in this video though I was just distracted and didn't think about it. I saw when editing the video that one of the gate guards was trying to get me to use my phone to use the translator, I just didn't notice in the moment, only much later when editing.

Hey G. I think your videos are incredible, but please edit them shorter. Most of the 25 mins videos can be 12-15 mins.. thanks for exploring my home country! 😊🙏🏻

[@Gventures]

Honestly man, I know people who make videos that are very similar to mine that get a lot of views (way more than mine), and their videos are 45 mins, 1 hour. I also get people asking me to make my videos longer. Then I get people asking me to make them shorter. I get people telling me to turn the music up, turn it down, don't have music. People tell me they don't want to watch the motorcycle rides, other people tell me they like the rides, some people say don't swear, others say they don't care, people want me to make daily vlogs, and vlogs showing rental prices and hospitals, etc. etc. etc. Bottom line is, I just can't please everyone. Some people want to see everything, other people want fast clips. I know we live in the era of tiktok and instagram, but people that really want that fast stuff can just go to those platforms then. What I am doing seems to be working, or at least it's okay, because I am steadily growing. Maybe I would grow faster if I made shorter videos, who knows, but I decide to leave in stuff for reasons, and those reasons can vary. It's a journey and some people want to see more of it. So...yeah. I'm just gonna continue editing the way I have been. Thanks for watching though 🙏

I feel very sorry for you ,, you really look tired and exhausted after leaving Alexandria ( The difference is well noticed) , My advise to you to shorten the driving distance per day and find a place to rest and sleep in between the intervals ,, you still have a very long way to go , I really recommend that you reconsider driving your motorbike from Matrouh to Siwa and you should try to find an alternative , think about it carefully ,, Another advise ( after returning back to Cairo inshaa Allah ) is to try to learn Arabic through classes for foreigners ( Actual or on line ) ,, this will facilitate many situations in the future and will make your videos more entertaining ,😊 Take care of your self , Regards ,

[@Gventures]

@@mam18181 Thank you mam! I was very tired after leaving Alexandria, that is true, but honestly that was completely my own fault, because I didn't sleep at all the night before. I've never had to drive on a road trip without any sleep before, and I will never do that again 😆 But I've actually had very long rides before. On my motorcycle trip from Cairo to Abu Simbel in the winter of 2022, on the way back to Cairo I rode from Luxor to Beni Suef (530km) in one day. So driving to Siwa is entirely possible, I just need to make sure I am well rested. But I appreciate your concern 🥰 Did you know I am also taking Arabic classes? I have a tutor. I just don't study as often as I should, because I am so busy with work (teaching English) and then with my free time making KZbin videos.
