Travelling outside of Cairo and Alexandria, in the rural areas of Egypt, is like riding in a time machine to a much earlier era. In the village of Bani Hellal, the world awakes as the sun rises to the braying of donkeys and the the bustle of women preparing to milk the cows. Most meals consist of fresh dairy products, homemade bread - they even grow their own grain - and a mixture of dates and honey for sweetening.
