the goals we said there was never giving up every weekend on d. w. the submitted to any and was once a major crossroads at the heart of the ancient. today it has become a barrier separating europe from africa. is there anything less of a past one share and what do 2 days distinct cultures have in common? journalist xena las rog and joe far off to korea, travel the coast of the mediterranean, in search of answers. you see yourself as a to be in june. and responsibilities,

how can you help me to join us to get to know the people and their dreams mediterranean the come to egypt, the land of the pharaohs the north african nation has around 700 kilometers of mediterranean coast. i don't know if i'm gonna do now. most of that arabic phrase mean the mother of the world. i love it because that's what lots of people in the arabic speaking world called egypt. beautiful. you know, many associated egypt with the pyramids. i mean, there's another side under his eye to the mediterranean. he's in today. we're in northern egypt of doctor take an exciting journey along the coast to coast. doing

this with the egypt is considered the cradle of civilization. the pyramids of these are among the oldest buildings in the world. they live just a few kilometers from the capital, cairo, and the nile, the lifeblood of the country, flows into the mediterranean sea. egypt conducts north africa with the middle east to the country is home to over 100000000 people, the light journeys dns and the 2nd largest city alexandria is major library. the video tico alexander, you know, which opened in 2002 is right here on the, from a not it's not my 1st visit. and once again, i am struck by how much egyptian society is characterized by start contracts.

very conservative values collide with maternity. i wonder what impact those differences have on dating and finding a partner showing most of the found at the muslim dating the way a woman in egypt or in the middle east. it's difficult for hair to like have dates like and what happens in the was it was 3 countries. so that's why when we sort of creating a mobile application that helped a young most than women and then find their large partner chime and our colleagues, your scientific methods and psychological testing to find the right partner for every one of us. but the most important thing is how the app is structured. it has to be modern without conflicting with religious and cultural values.

a social consensus is that women should marry young and have lots of children. don't get the idea. they really, they came to me in the, at the found is because we have these experiences. however, the way people to me that's the way my mother's friends put her into a psychological question. so if you think she would come to me and say you foretold, ever since i was $24.00, i think it ended up psychological pressure. even though i was done successfully. i have lots of puppies as i travel, but none of that is recognized by gibson families. they see marriage has the so indicate terrific go success. my guess is been to days ago. the deal is why is the focus on as long as that when religion may be no longer play such a role in marriage today we have the feeling muslims have concerns about getting to know each of the 3 day things as all these days is that the young muslim is wants to use something martin, i've ever something technically up to date. so much of the same time. they don't

want something. the parents might say is i have as full inappropriate to wrong away . what about relationships outside marriage? as we know in the id with avaya is budgets minutes of marriage. and of course we don't tell anyone and using it is that they have to get married within a certain time. they should understand that to relationship they stop through this app is serious. all right, on the fresh fish straight from the mediterranean for something that's a hobby for others, a tough way of making a living. but imagine for seafood united all alexandria, they want to tell you the the 1st port of call for all manner of specially prepared seafood is the right strong

saffir situated right on the water. the kitchen is overseen by hedge has no harm in jumping space. here are they all from the mediterranean, around alexandria, mediterranean. we don't have any front of the red sea. what's that? i want someone, it's cool. who said everybody is why is it special? and it tastes very good fried points and you can also stuff it. you can have it with bosses, but it's best to try to of the administration. someone told me about something called thing gary and gary would like to make son gallery icons open a launch page, sending me off and then awesome. now let's have some goodies and let's take this one down. it doesn't get if you can mix angry with this too, right, buddy? and all of those right. of course, and some squid. unlimited grid. yeah. and you'll show me how to make it all m a special feeling. the

today is saturday. things are busy in the kitchen. the i'm getting hungry, the oil and lemon mixed oil in lemon mixture. it's a very alexandria and it's for the fish. we use it for the feeling garlic scenario deal must good on fine. so you know, this is some gallery keys on fish. first, we sprayed soul told the basing tray, so the fish doesn't stick. we'll take the fish all day one and you do one. okay, so we do it like this without hands, oil and lemon. you take around an ottoman and that's how you make your fish. oh my god on. i've never cooked anything like this. yes. just like that.

that on the new shift the that's the mussa i what's that? the most of peach we failed. oh yeah, i recognize it. now. that's what the shape of what do most people order here in the sun gallery fish. and because the soul of mixture is really special, i mean, one of the best sources we have in alexandria. ok, need international nation. i. and as i want to know, somebody walked in to school today and we could still do well. we can prepare anything that comes out of the scene to the 1950s. greek

battalion, french and british migrants lived and worked in alexandria today. the port city with a population of around 5000000 as a major social problems like poverty and the housing shortage in 2019 and egyptians average monthly income was around 235 years engineering apprenticeship or study. i only went to school until 39. great. why? i didn't finish school. education doesn't feed you learning a trade or a job phase more. my father died when i was 6. there was no one to look after me. how long have you been working? kind of 29. what age did you start? 14. 1491? yes. i'm leaving alexandria and heading to the rest of the body. just under 3 hours away by car. gets it to waited on both the

mediterranean sea and the nile delta. for thousands of years, the river has been egypt. sliped like 2 minutes here in austin. and now hearing that i said samson, to visit an arabic at means head of the tongue. the whole distance called that because behind me it's the longest river in the world. denial flows into the mediterranean, going to the heck in bits in the mail. and i saw here most people here find that really special customers on. this is another special thing about tommy at the province here is that it has the country's 1st female question governor and they're not going to meet or just a few kilometers further down the nile. delta is the city of dummy. yeah, it's a thriving port in the capital of dummy at the province in 2018. dr. my not a watch me shy is became the 1st contact christian to head of provincial government in egypt. and she's only the 2nd woman ever to govern. one of the countries $27.00

provinces, the beginning of the whole country is moving towards the empowerment of women passing the i'm very interested in women being financially socially and culturally strong. it's one of the most imposing prerequisites for a modern country has the most successful d, as in predominantly muslim egypt, an estimated 10 percent of the population are christian, most have been kept at christians. not i'll watch me show you who was a christian herself is heavily protected by security guards. radical as long as i have repeatedly attacked institutions like churches and schools and christians, us so face state discrimination here that the modesty show. i mean, what does this experience i mean for you and mostly i can do represent egypt and as

i also or religious minority that any, even if christians in the country don't like to see themselves if somebody's already at the end of the day, there are far fewer review than there are muslims yet. and his belly, the guy was very pleased. i took it as a sign that egypt has changed. the people don't get advantages because of a background when the instead positions are allocated to candidates because of a suitability for the job. because if it is now, then let's go to the food. we now have a constitution that protects the rights of christians. if people would exceed their wealth for laws that protect the rights of women and christians, and also there is of other religions bundle disorder. i'm totally with hate. let's see, i don't law states this, but the reality is different. the name is, can i ask the body of, for example, the law may encourage the restoration of churches. how long is the social node is different and jody most with a lot of good for the columbus that we use all seek to get. then had the little few, there might be a few troublemakers in some villages where your father quarter show like that was

that can be the case any time it can anywhere the been have been, it'd be back there is, are exactly the exxon preference of the way we can teach people acceptance and respect for the time and if it isn't difficult, but couldn't the, the couple of the coma who would get you over the unless it, some egyptians say that they're happy in egypt isn't a phase of positive change to hear what other outside of it, but other, say freedoms are being suppressed, come out and political views are being suppressed. i see a see there are political prisoners, most likely. and what kind of egypt do you see today on the movies, which they are a subject times when search and things on possible modal by the nephew. now up to the upheaval and the revolution, it's easy to sway public opinion and on special people live, demonstration of the mother of the country. just can't handle that right now. i'm into that. but of egypt has just experienced an economic collapse austin way i'll see. and then it is a beautiful look as well. and then also, why can't you have

a functioning economy and a change of the most with the one lady who, while you're talking about security matches here, i can come in some other for tennessee since the so called error of spring and 2011, many have been fighting for freedom, democracy and human rights. it's been a hard struggle, especially since i've dentist. r. c. c became president from danita. i'm traveling divorce. i eat 50 kilometers away. the modern industrial ports that he lives on the suez canal completed in 18. 69. the canal conducts the mediterranean with the red sea these days, most vessels that pass through the waterway. our container ships from the far east for oil tankers from the gulf, the on the ferry, i mean architect mohammad, how he's offered to give me

a historical tour of the city where between 2 continents, between africa and the each of the 4 o'clock is on the asian side, and course i need on the average in time for florida is the newer city and it wasn't built until 1926. well, for site dates from 1859. the city was built for suez canal workers. the cost lives grand mosque isn't the only interesting thing the city has to offer. the colonial architecture was also remarkable. the european influence gets visible everywhere. the canal was nationalized in 1956 by egypt and president come, i've done nothing before that for what was mainly home to foreigners working for the free corporate issues suez canal company. so i haven't had to tell me about

what you deal with, but we run tours to make addictions aware of the history of their country and also for people from abroad. foresight is not a tourist destination. when you come to egypt, people tell you, go to unlock sir la swan blah, charm l shape. uh huh. so the chiral alexandria and no one says of course i need to cite some why is history important events the mirror of the future? if you have no history that you have no future, much of egypt depends on tourism. and poor flood has more to offer than expected. so much walking around makes you hungry and something sweet would be the perfect pick me up. we had to a local bakery. this is delicious. it's very, very, very sweet. but absolutely delicious. i'm going to take some to go to

the people in this region. always want their sweets to be really sweet with loads of sugar like in europe and most of them they are, they don't like things to be as sweet as here. personally, i like sugar, but what do you think the people want things to be sweet? how life's a hard enough? why shouldn't we at least sweep now food a little or maybe it's because sugar makes you happy. it makes you feel good. yeah, the sugar are not. the main thing is it tastes great. he also bought a little bread to feed the c goals on the ferry back to port side of the i don't want to philosophize, but people who live by the see. don't see any borders in front of them. nobody. you

can control the body. they always want to freedom the want, something better resort. i'm not saying we're better people, but people on the coasts have that feeling. you see, it reflected in the residence of foresight. they hate border. never a bell. yes. most of them are. that's important in egypt, right. now the coastal cities or gate waste of the world where people with different backgrounds and cultures come together, the post value is the origin of seems to me in music. traditionally, only men play a stringed instrument, the one of the all how we got club. we meet him on how to enter friends. they found that the 1st female seems to me, i'm going to define social norms and finding a little freedom through music. the

why did you join the group to simeon? yeah, i mean i would have done like music general have been seconds. i liked the group for a minute. you know, what is the most important thing in my life? so when you say that when you sing along with an i or it brings enough to enjoy, it's an important type instruments. it just makes you happy the,

the, the, to many, there must be people who say what your girls enhanced cards. female voices are getting decent. yes, we hear it a lot to get. what's your reaction? let me listen. we don't pay attention to say the next, the last thing we think about the 3 men who make it come true no matter how hard it is. and then what do your family say that is provided for then use that screen honestly. so let me ask you something when your daughter said she wanted to sing, what did you say? she likes it. it makes her happy. i don't have to turn it on. i'm always by either side. i'm like a mother to them all and everywhere with them and even when they travel as of homes

. but if one of them didn't wear a head in the car, we have the okay to move. yes, no problem at all. what's most important is how she interacts with other people, and that actually is the symptom of that sort of, gen the head start question won't come up. let me know back to the music. thanks very much. from force i eat. i'm returning to alexandria where my journey alone, egypt, mediterranean coast to begin a few days ago the whenever i traveled, i always read the local newspapers. but according to reporters without borders, press freedom is extremely limited in egypt. the, the,

the, the, you and hcr says there are more than 250000 refugees living in egypt. many of them from sudan in the hall and the sacred heart church. we meet, i'm, you know, out of my city. the 22 year old started the one us initiative in 2018. the goal is to empower students children through art and drama workshops and help them integrate thing to attribute society. hi, how are you? and all of you there are things we do most of data. how i'd like to join your workshop. what do i have to do that? so stand up. ok. now a little say a name and a loud voice, and we'll make

polls start. make fun of me being told your height is fine with me. show to towing a hitch in there to find notes that feet. yes, it takes a long time to find my size. you probably find us quite easily. well, by being made fun of out of it, that makes it sound obvious. did you see how often reacted it's like i'm saying mean things to you and you have to back in a friendly way that i'm making fun of you just shouldn't do that rather well said what are the important issues for you right now? the problem in egypt is people thinking in a right to left, black and white, everyone thinks that if someone is different from them,

they must be an enemy to be confronted. but in reality, diversity makes a strong the next morning i leave egypt and it's mediterranean coast with mixed feelings. it's a country with a long and great history. what it's present is marked by enormous social and political difficulties. xfinity mentioned here and i found the people here in egypt incredibly open about the pharmacy perm on. it's been wonderful to experience the country. nice. so i think about us about at the same time it was difficult to get to know each of the way i'd hope to how does that be in my office that we always had minders with us getting filming permits was very, very complicated. and sometimes i noticed that people were afraid of expressing their opinions, which makes realize that the country isn't so free. mission sofa,
