"I’m currently studying abroad in Egypt as part of the Museums, Memory, and Politics Winter Term group project, and okay, I’ve only been here for three days, but I’m already sure this is one of the coolest things I’ve ever done... I’ve been exploring Old Cairo, I tried Egyptian food for the first time (I’m a picky eater, but it’s not bad!), I joined an impromptu dance with a performer in front of an entire restaurant, and tomorrow I’m visiting the Pyramids, which has always been a dream of mine that I never thought I’d be able to do." -Julia Xu ’27
