Indeed, I do live in Cairo, in a particular area called Maadi. It's a fancy area full of villas, diplomatic entities, and international organizations. It's well known for being quiet and is full of trees and gardens. It's a very unique place, and I really enjoy living in it. I would always recommend it to anyone. It's the first destination for any foreigner who comes to Egypt to visit Maadi. It's one of the most ancient places in Cairo, so yes, indeed, it is a very good place.
