Home together with Nasser
Nasser works as a street seller in Aswan and has understood both the ambition and the vision about "The Shirt".
Another soccer-loving Egyptian and he asked me if I would come home to his place together with his family, and receive his Aswan-footballshirt.
This is a home with a large family, from grandma and grandpa, the uncle and aunt, down to a great bunch of brothers and sisters. Two good fans in the ceiling, concrete floors in the living room and the world's best Chay (Thee) and great hospitality.
Another supporter has donated a shirt and I hope you buy something from Nasser when you do a just beside the big cruiseship from Luxor.
Nasser has in fact one goal for the next three years. He dreams of earning so much that he can marry and buy a separate apartment. When asked how much he had to pay in order to get to it, so was the answer:
"I dream about one day to have 1000 Egyptian Pound in Mounth sallary" (it is 1000 norwegian kroner per month in wages)
