Nazmy - Love Is My Religion: Egypt, Travel, and a Quest for Peace

Egypt is a mysterious and magical place. And thanks to Mohamed Nazmy, tens of thousands of travelers have experienced it. Nazmy, a self-made businessman, travel expert, Quest Travel company founder, mentor and spiritual consciousness-raiser, builds bridges between people from the West to the Middle East, so they may come to know each other as friends. Raised in Cairo, and educated in both Egypt and the USA, he believes that this is how peace in the world is created. Through terrorism and 9/11, political turmoil and revolution, Nazmy witnessed barriers of fear, intolerance, and prejudice wedging themselves between worlds. Yet he never stopped believing that if he could bring travelers to his beloved country, and expose them to the magic, they would realize that regardless of race, religion, creed, or belief system, we are family. This is the work that Nazmy gives his life to. Through these pages, you'll travel deeply into the life and work of a visionary. There are stories here about Nazmy from the well-known teachers, scholars, and authors who have traversed Egypt under his guidance. You'll be entertained by many rich and meaningful travel experiences through ancient and modern Egypt. You'll meet noted Egyptologists, as well as the loyal employees of Quest Travel, and revel in the antics of Nazmy and beloved friend and Egyptologist, Emil Shaker. You'll witness how Nazmy unites spiritual truth with his great love for people. And hopefully, you'll find through all of these stories the inspiration to spread your own message of love and tolerance. You'll become what Nazmy calls a "Peace Ambassador." This is more than a story of travel and tourism. This is a story of how one man has harnessed the magic and mystery of Egypt to create peace, one relationship at a time.
