Laura

Laura, a French soul with a heart deeply in love with Egypt. If she created ‘Dunya’, which means ‘life on earth’, ‘the world’ in Arabic, it is to convey her attachment and strong relation to travel, humans, and the Arab world.

Alongside her career in the hospitality industry and her passion for horseback riding and yoga, she always had a thing with crafting unique experience for her loved ones, and then others…making them travel in her own way: by immersing completely in the country’s culture, starting with her beloved country: Egypt.

In 2023, she brought this passion to life by creating “Dunya”, immersive & exclusive escapes in Egypt, crafted to explore Egypt “differently,” off the beaten path and close to its traditions and culture.

Travel is for me all about humanity and personal connections, and that's the kind of touch I want to bring to your escapes.
