Mo'men was all over us sending us his "looks" while we were at "Masjid Ibn-Tulun." Are you tourists?" he asked while gazing at our cameras. I replied back "eh ya 3am? da7na masreyeen" (translation: "what's up dude, we're egyptians"). The cameras tricked him into thinking that we were tourists.

He smiled....and still gazed. I asked the the important question: "would you like to be photographed?" he nudged joyfully "YES".

THE RESULT: a young muslim egyptian full of pride of his country and religion. Don't you just love the look on his eyes as they wander for a point to fix their sight on for a good pose??

Word Translation of "Mo'men": A Strong Believer.

I had tons of fun, met new people and saw new places!
