I live in New Cairo Egypt and regularly visit London where I make sure to buy pots of San Giuliano marmalade made using Sicilian citrus fruits – to bring back to Egypt where citrus fruits grow in abundance! I am also a regular visitor to Italy and love everything (well, almost everything) about the country.
