When I was a child I really wanted to visit Egypt.
I loved mythology, especially of Egypt, it intrigued me very much.
So my parents presented me a book of ancient Egypt.
It was not a thick book, but I was fascinated by it.
There were lots of illustrations in it as every child would want.
I remember how I was reclining on a bed and read that book, even though I didn't like reading very much at the time.
I thought how it would be wonderful see all those pyramids and sphinxes that I read about.
Sometimes I dreamed about me wandering along the roads of Cairo or going along the Nile river from the Upper Egypt down to Lower Egypt on a boat.
And yet I never though it could be possible.
Nobody from the people I knew never have been visiting another country.
It was crazy even think about it.
It seemed as though other part of the world was on an other planet, so difficult it was to us.
So we didn't even planned this kind of event and never talked about it.
Though personally I thought that I definitely will visit another country when I grew older.
And it happend, much earlier than I thought it would be.
Now it don't seems to me so impossible.
I know it souds melodramatically, but maybe one's right when one says 'everything can happen as lond as you keep dreaming'.
