Frisco - HAIGHT STREET

The Haight district is famous for its role as a center of the 1960s hippie movement, a post-runner and closely associated offshoot of the Beat generation or beat movement, members of which swarmed San Francisco's "in" North Beach neighborhood two to eight years before the "Summer of Love" in 1967. Many who could not find space to live in San Francisco's northside found it in the quaint, relatively cheap and underpopulated Haight Ashbury. The '60s era and modern American counterculture has been synonymous with San Francisco and the upper Haight neighborhood ever since.

Tea, Shisha, Dominoes, Television and Egyptians... Hurghada by night.

The city of Hurghada, Egypt, is situated on the Red Sea and it was founded on the early 20th century. Until a few years ago it was a small fishing village. Today is shared by Egyptian and foreign investors, in a total of 40.000 inhabitants.
Even with the influence of the thousands of turists on holidays every year, Hurghada locals still enjoy nightlife like they always did... With tea, shisha, dominoes and television.
