Did you know that Sharm el Sheikh is considered “the Maldives of Egypt”? Well. To clarify, there is one part of it that looks like the Maldives, but a whole other town south of Hurghada that really does look like the Maldives. But for the sake of search engines and referencing my social media posts, I’m going to tell you about Sharm el Sheikh in...
