Welcome

Dear Readers,

This issue, we catch of glimpse of life on the go in El Gouna from a variety of perspectives. In the workaday world we’re constantly on the go, fighting traffic, running errands, and trying to finish projects at work. Being on the move in El Gouna is different. Life here is a celebration of the kind of activity we all need more of: trips to the beach, walks to the café, days spent learning a new sport, and evenings dancing with friends.

This issue celebrates momentum in El Gouna and explores some of the ways we can stay on the go in town. Jenny Cooper reports on the fourth annual KiteJamboree held in October, and covers two new aqua sports: stand up paddle boarding and Liquid Park, a water fun extravaganza found in the airport lagoon.

Some people take the phrase “on the move” to whole new levels. One such person is Dave Matthie, a farm boy from South Africa who went on to spend half his life on the open sea.

Georgina Cole shares her experience taking salsa lessons at C-Bar which, along with Café Vienna, is host to weekly Latin-themed parties. For something that works out the body with less effort on your part, try the Siam stretch massage at Angsana Spa.

Enjoy!
