2. You become less stereotype and more culturally sensitive

Not only does he learn that the terror attacks don’t happen everywhere, he is shocked to discover that Egypt has a thriving economy. He also learns that Africa is a continent with over 50 countries including Nigeria. Furthermore, he learns to eat some cool Egyptian meals like amd wear beautiful attires and so much more.
