			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dear All, </p>
<p>the brainstorming weekend has been postponed to March 3rd  to 5th<br />
Please read the updated call: </p>
<p>We are trying to organize a couple of days next weekend at the Sheikh<br />
Sina Ecolodge in Ste. Katerine to brainstorm on how we can support the<br />
effort to revitalize tourism in Egypt in general, and in Sinai in<br />
particular.</p>
<p>This would be starting on the evening of March 3, but mainly March 4<br />
and 5 (Friday-Saturday).</p>
<p>The primary objective is to come up with concrete steps, even if just<br />
on a small scale, to help capitalizing on this positive spirit taking<br />
over the country right now, and in which we know some tourists would<br />
like to participate first hand.</p>
<p>We propose to use the weekend in Sheikh Sina for two main things:</p>
<p>- Review together our proposal for a 1 week to 10 days travel Plan in<br />
Egypt- what specific activities could be included.<br />
- Agree on how we can all promote this Plan through our networks,<br />
social sites, business contacts, etc..</p>
<p>To facilitate things, we will have a strawman proposal for this travel<br />
plan, that we will then spend time discussing, elaborating, changing,<br />
etc.. We think this travel plan will focus on three main themes:</p>
<p>1- General, standars site seeing. For example, no one who has never<br />
been to Egypt before will want to not see the Pyramids or Islamic<br />
Cairo..<br />
2- Specific activities focused on the Revolution: walks in Tahreer<br />
with people who were there for the demonstrations; talks or lectures;<br />
celebratory events..<br />
3- Hikes, meditation sessions, and local cultural activities in Sinai,<br />
based out of Sheikh Sina.</p>
<p>As I said, we will spend time refining this together, and<br />
incorporating everyone&#8217;s ideas in it, then agree on how best to<br />
promote and disseminate it.</p>
<p>What you would do:<br />
1- First, just by joining the weekend, you already would be doing<br />
something to help revitalize tourism there. So even if you just enjoy<br />
your time and do nothing else, just going is a positive first step.<br />
2- Participate in the discussions, as mentioned above.<br />
3- Agree on how each of us can promote this Plan, even if only by a<br />
simple email to our contacts.</p>
<p>Additionally, those who wish to participate further can propose to<br />
conduct themselves some of the activities such as walks etc. that we<br />
agree on in the travel Plan.</p>
<p>Of course this would also be a fun weekend, including hikes or even<br />
meditation sessions for those who like to participate.</p>
<p>The cost is in the vicinity of 350 EGP per person for accommodation<br />
and food, excluding transportation to and from Sheikh Sina.</p>
<p>Please email me or Anja if you are interested in this weekend. The<br />
main activities would be on Friday and Saturday morning, but ideally<br />
if you could get there by Thursday evening, that would be best, but<br />
not essential.</p>
<p>Hope to see as many people as possible there!</p>
<p><strong>How to get there</strong><br />
Ideally you will organize your own transport from Cairo or other<br />
places to St. Katharine. If you have a 4×4, you can go directly to the<br />
Ecolodge.<br />
Others can park their cars at the end of the paved road, and I will<br />
organize a jeep or jeeps to bring us to the Ecolodge. The cost for the<br />
jeep (60 LE per way) can be shared.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Travelling in Revolutionary Times &#8211; Feb 24th &#8211; 26th at the Mount<br />
Sina Ecolodge – brainstorming, discussions, visions</strong></p>
<p>Please join us to discuss new ways of travelling in Egypt.<br />
Shape new avenues for tourism in these exciting times &#8212; and get involved.</p>
<p>We will meet next weekend, 24.2 to 26.2 at the Mount Sina Ecolodge.</p>
<p>Tentative schedule: </p>
<p>24.2<br />
Arrive Thursday evening at the Ecolodge.<br />
Over dinner collect questions and initial ideas, decide on topics or questions we want to discuss on Friday.</p>
<p>25.2<br />
Breakfast at the Ecolodge.<br />
In small groups work on different questions.<br />
Some of us might want to stay at the Ecolodge and continue discussions there.<br />
Others might want to use the energy of the hike up to Mt. Moses<br />
to intensify our new visions.<br />
Hikers will be back for tea and dinner at the Ecolodge.</p>
<p>26.2<br />
Breakfast at the Ecolodge.<br />
Collect results from discussions on Friday and come up with concrete actions to do.<br />
Build symbols (e.g., small stone figures) to start manifesting our<br />
intentions, plans.<br />
Event ends after lunch.</p>
<p>Accomodation and costs: </p>
<p>There are 14 beds in double and triple rooms available at the Ecolodge.<br />
Around 10 people can sleep in their own sleeping bags/blankets in<br />
the arisha, which will also be our &#8216;workshop&#8217; room.<br />
At this time of year it is still quite cold in the mountains, as the<br />
Ecolodge is situated at 1700 m elevation.<br />
Sleeping outside will probably be too cold.</p>
<p>The total cost for food and accomodation and an extra guide to look after us from<br />
Thursday evening to Saturday after lunch will be:<br />
320 LE for shared room<br />
280 LE for place in arisha with own sleeping bag.</p>
<p>Ideally you will organize your own transport from Cairo or other<br />
places to St. Katharine. If you have a 4&#215;4, you can go directly to the<br />
Ecolodge.<br />
Others can park their cars at the end of the paved road, and I will<br />
organize a jeep or jeeps to bring us to the Ecolodge. The cost for the<br />
jeep (60 LE per way) can be shared.</p>
<p>If you want to join, please send 100% confirmation by 22.2 20.00 with name, type of<br />
accomodation preferred, means of transport, approx. time of arrival and your telephone number to my email address handicraft@sheikhsina.com.</p>
<p>You are welcome to enrich the event with your ideas. Please confirm.<br />
Also, please let me know if you have any questions or comments.</p>
<p>More info on the Ecolodge at:</p>

<p>Thank you!<br />
Looking forward to having a constructive and empowering discussion<br />
with you next weekend!</p>
<p>Anja</p>

One day during this summer I had the great pleasure to spend the morning with the local bedouin artist Awad Hussein.<br />
Awad continues the craft of his father in designing bedouin jewellery using a special type of tin.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>The Making of a Bedouin Rug</strong></p>
<p>Earlier this year I observed two bedouin women making a rug.<br />
There are a lot of bedouin women these days using big fixed looms to make rugs. These two women showed me the way it was done in the old days when the movable loom was setup wherever it was needed. </p>
<p>First the length and width of the future rug are measured. The four poles are rammed into the gravel floor with stones that can always be found in this region. The stones also serve as platforms to hold  the loom sticks. </p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<div id="attachment_474" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://bedouinculture.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/measuring_length_width_kl.jpg"><img src="http://bedouinculture.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/measuring_length_width_kl.jpg?w=300&#038;h=225" alt="" title="measuring_length_width_kl" width="300" height="225" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-474" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Setting up the Loom</p></div>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p>Then the first strings of wool are strung over the whole lengths of the loom and every second string is seperated. </p>
<p><strong> </strong><br />
<strong> </strong></p>
<p><a href="http://bedouinculture.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/one_kl.jpg"><img src="http://bedouinculture.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/one_kl.jpg?w=300&#038;h=225" alt="" title="one_kl" width="300" height="225" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-475" /></a></p>
<p><strong> </strong><br />
<strong> </strong></p>
<p><a href="http://bedouinculture.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/two_kl.jpg"><img src="http://bedouinculture.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/two_kl.jpg?w=300&#038;h=225" alt="" title="two_kl" width="300" height="225" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-476" /></a></p>
<p><strong> </strong><br />
The bedouin women choose the colors of the wools strings carefully until finally the whole wool frame is ready.<br />
<strong> </strong><br />
<a href="http://bedouinculture.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/four_kl.jpg"><img src="http://bedouinculture.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/four_kl.jpg?w=300&#038;h=225" alt="" title="four_kl" width="300" height="225" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-478" /></a></p>
<p><strong> </strong><br />
<strong> </strong></p>
<p>Fixing knotes are tied at one end of the frame and then the actual weaving can start.<br />
<strong> </strong><br />
<a href="http://bedouinculture.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/five_kl1.jpg"><img src="http://bedouinculture.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/five_kl1.jpg?w=300&#038;h=225" alt="" title="five_kl" width="300" height="225" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-481" /></a><br />
<strong> </strong><br />
<a href="http://bedouinculture.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/six_kl.jpg"><img src="http://bedouinculture.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/six_kl.jpg?w=300&#038;h=225" alt="" title="six_kl" width="300" height="225" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-482" /></a></p>
<p>The upper strings have to be separeted from the lower strings after each passing of the weaving wood.</p>
<p><a href="http://bedouinculture.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/seven_kl.jpg"><img src="http://bedouinculture.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/seven_kl.jpg?w=300&#038;h=225" alt="" title="seven_kl" width="300" height="225" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-483" /></a></p>
<p><a href="http://bedouinculture.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/eight_kl.jpg"><img src="http://bedouinculture.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/eight_kl.jpg?w=300&#038;h=225" alt="" title="eight_kl" width="300" height="225" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-484" /></a></p>
<p>After a few moments the pattern of the rug is visible. </p>
<p><a href="http://bedouinculture.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/nine_kl.jpg"><img src="http://bedouinculture.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/nine_kl.jpg?w=300&#038;h=225" alt="" title="nine_kl" width="300" height="225" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-485" /></a></p>
<p>And after a few days with a couple of hours work each day a beautiful rug is created. </p>
<div id="attachment_486" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://bedouinculture.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/fertig.jpg"><img src="http://bedouinculture.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/fertig.jpg?w=300&#038;h=175" alt="" title="fertig" width="300" height="175" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-486" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">The finished rug</p></div>

<p>On our last day we got up at 4am for a lesson in star signs, we saw also a good number of shooting stars and observed Venus coming up over the mountain. Spectacular!</p>
