I'm a New Yorker with a passion for travel and art. I founded DowntownTraveler.com after returning from a year-long backpacking trip around the world. Find me on Twitter at @leslietravel. 
My boyfriend and I are planning a trip to Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt in November 2011.
I would like to know of any security concerns we should have.
I will be traveling from the US and he will be traveling from Afghanistan where he is currently working.
Any information you could provide me with would be helpful.
Thank you for your time.
Hello my name is Kelly and I recently saw a poster of a girl holding a drawing that says ASVP, with a heart and it’s signed protection, I absolutely love it. What does “ASVP” mean and stands for? What does that poster mean? And what inspired your collection?
Hi Kelly-Ann – We recently interviewed street artists ASVP about their work. Check out the story for details about this artist collective: http://bit.ly/pgpWci
