BY BRIAN CZARNECKI
My name is Brian Czarnecki. I am a graduate student at Eastern Illinois University working on my masters degree in Technology. I ended up going on a study abroad trip to Egypt with my professor, Dr. Wafeek Wahby, after working with him on recruiting other students from other schools for the trip. I was a little uneasy about spending the very large sum of money for the trip, but I realized that it was possible to obtain student loans from financial aid and I may never have the chance to go later in life. Now that I am back from Egypt, I am very happy I spent the money to go and experience all the history and culture of a country with very few similarities to the United States.
I managed to borrow a digital camera for the trip from one of my professors
and I ended up taking over 500 pictures. This web site tells the
story of my two week adventure in Egypt with chronologically ordered pictures
divided up into different sites and sections of the trip. Please
click on the small pictures to view a much larger version.
