Hello - Bonjour - Ahlan!

[Egypsy = Egyptian + Gypsy]

I’m Stephanie - a first-generation Egyptian American, raised in Marin County, California.

In 1986, after seven years, a marriage, and a baby, my parents won the lottery.
Not exactly mega millions, but the American Immigration lottery. Within two weeks they sold everything they owned and moved across the world to a little place called Marin County.  
I started traveling back to Egypt at the age of six, with my sister Nathalie, which fueled my love of travel, and gypsy soul. My sister and I spent our summers on the beaches of Agami, with friends and family, practicing our French and learning about a life my parents left behind. 
I’m a designer at heart. I love to travel and to entertain, and mostly I LOVE to eat.

Egypsy is my space to bring all these things together. As an Egyptian, my family has always gathered in the kitchen. It's where we do our best creating. Whether we are cooking, crafting, or entertaining -- our kitchen island has exponentially grown as our family has. All these passions have led me to this small space on the internet to call my own. The Egypsy Store is a food, travel & home goods concept store by yours truly. You can also find most of my travel journal photos on Instagram @egypsy_.
Here we create recipes, art, and products, and bring people together through cooking and entertaining. Our store showcases items we wish we had while traveling and some trinkets we find along the way. Our shop is a place for home decor featuring handmade artisan products from the Khan el Khalili and Khayameya, two major souks in the Islamic district of Cairo.
Thanks so much for stopping by!
