ONLY 10?

How about some guidelines? Are these tips for folks about to move here, have just moved here, or who have been here a few years?

Each of those deserves an article separately. Single folks vs young marrieds w/out kids; married with kids; older couples w/out kids - all different needs for different tips as well.

Should we stay away from the general, works-for-any-country type tips ("Stay away from negative expats." "Learn the local language." "On a bad day, make a list of the things that you'd miss if you moved away tomorrow.")?

Our family will work on this as a Thanksgiving weekend project (one of the things we missed last time we left - Egyptian turkeys beat Butterballs hands down). Looking forward to the other responses.

So sorry for my delay... the tips can be for any type of expat -- soon-to-be, new, seasoned, etc.. I agree that each deserves it's own article. And, if we get enough info, maybe we can do that. Regardless, all of the tips will remain on this thread as well -- and many will be used in the article. So, give as much advice as you'd like. I guess that the only guideline I'd suggest it to make the advice specific to Egypt. Rather than general expat advice, think of things that people moving/living in Egypt need to know to make life easier, to easer their transition (if they are new), etc..

Thanks, in advance, for your help. Again, my apologies for the delay!
