How not to get poisoned in Egypt and what to do in case of poisoning
Poisoning tourists in Egypt happens very often. This problem is much larger than it seems. Firstly, most vacationers are treated independently, which makes it impossible to collect at least some statistics. Secondly, alcohol is often mistakenly considered the cause of stomach upsets. As a result, this “acute” problem is underestimated by many. In this article we will give some tips – how not to poison yourself in Egypt. Unfortunately, any such advice only reduces the likelihood of poisoning, but does not completely exclude it. Most importantly, you need to know. All products in Egypt are grown in the Nile Valley, where the soil has always been very fertile. This was due to the silt that the river brought every year. In 1970, a dam and power station were built in the city of Aswan, and silt ceased to flow into the fields. But the yield did not decrease, but only increased. Why? The answer is obvious – mineral fertilizers. Continue reading
Tourists’ “Divorces” in Egypt – Common Cheats
The desire of the Egyptians to “feast on” the contents of the wallets of tourists is huge. Perhaps, in this indicator, Egypt is ahead of all tourist countries. At the same time, the Egyptians are not very choosy in the choice of methods, and often use technologies that are very questionable from a moral point of view.

On these cards, tourists receive beach towels.

Australia – Overview of Australia Country and Cities
it is an amazing, incomparable to any other, state, with the informal name “country of Oz”. In a territory comparable to the area of Europe, only 18 million people live. About 80% of them inhabit eight large cities located on the coast. Wildlife in Australia can be adjacent to megacities, and four-meter crocodiles can swim in the bays, on the banks of which are large cities. Australia has the highest concentration of national parks per capita – there are more than 540 of them, setting up a tent in one of them, you can not see a soul for years.
The continent impresses tourists with its natural, geographical and climatic diversity. In its central and western regions lie vast unexplored open spaces, called by the Australians “outback” – backyards. Along the east coast stretches the Great Dividing Range, which separates deserts from flowering valleys on the coast. Tropical forests grow here, which, in a riot of life, can argue with the Amazon River. Continue reading
