    As an Egyptian working abroad, I miss life in Egypt very much. Egypt is vibrant and unlike any other country. The people of Egypt are good, they love and welcome the guest. If, God forbid, an accident happens in the street, you will find dozens of people gathering to help. They will not leave you alone.

      Yes everyone is very fond of it, it's so cheap and fast and filling! It is quite heavy for me, even when I order a small, I can never finish it, so I always end up bringing it home and eating it later. Two meals in one small koshery! 😄👍

I did not go to this place ( the one on the video), but I went to Dokki ( The koshery Place). Delicious!! Also, last month I visited again Egypt for 2 weeks, one week in Cairo and another one in Hurghada before I returned to USA, the 21 of May. I tried some delicious food too this time... I stayed on Nile Street ( AirBNB) which I recommend it.... beautiful place and nice and convenient location. I intend to go back in July.

I often see my neighbor spreading out a lot of guts (or something?) along the sidewalk for all the cats, and he feeds the dogs too. I feed them tuna or chicken or any leftover food I have as well.

Also plenty of people care about the animals here in Egypt, saying they (Egyptians) have to change themselves to fix the issue is a pretty ignorant statement to make, it's about money and resources and the government. The government doesn't have a program to sterilize the animals so they just keep having babies and thus there are more and more stray cats and dogs, the cycle continues. Plenty of Egyptians care for and feed the animals like I have already stated, but not one person or group can fix the entire cities issue, Cairo has a population of 25 million and even people and families live on the street here so of course there are animals on the street as well.

Materialistic shit is a huge waste, not sure why you mentioned it when talking about animals, but I agree with you, that's why I travel the world with only a 40 liter backpack that holds everything I own in the world. I don't know if you've ever been to Egypt but I am thinking perhaps not, because the amount of stray cats is way too many to feed them all, many times when I am feeding them I have to prevent a brawl because I dump out some food for a few cats I see and suddenly 5 more show up and they begin to fight over it. It's a real issue out here. Homeless people living on the street too. I gave this kid my leftovers as I was leaving a restaurant one day, and as I was walking away I noticed him sharing some of the food with a little stray cat. That kid was gold.
