Barely 2 weeks to go before I bid good-bye to Egypt, to take on a new role in Nielsen based out of Dubai.
I came into Egypt in December 2010 completely oblivious of the impending Revolution and the cataclysmic shake-up that it will unleash in our personal and professional lives, including mine.
I don't want to pretend to be the cool guy and claim that this period has been a cake-walk. I admit the last two-and-half years have been tough, but it did help me understand myself better.
I don't want to be melodramatic either, and say I will shed tears on leaving Egypt - a country still close to my heart. Egypt is now part of what I have become - for the better and for the worse - and I will be forever grateful for this.
