13 Sahel Instagram Cliches That Will Never Ever Go Away
What is a Sa7el weekend other than a bunch of Instagram posts with redundant hashtags that leave you rethinking all your life decisions? You might choose to stay in Cairo for the weekend, but rest assured if you dare touch that Instagram icon, you will be sucked into everyone’s Sa7el experience whether you like it or not.
Here are 12 Sa7el Instagram cliches that need to stop now:
1. There’s always a white party
2. The famous wake-boarding photo ( wallahi 3erefna that you wake-board)
3. The photo of you back sitting on the beach we howa fadi and your view of endless blue water
4. Tab3an we all shouldn’t miss out that one photo with a celebrity you bump into at some point. Usually he’s the star of a Ramadan series. Last year it was Mohamed Farrag and Mostafa Fahmy, we’re still waiting for Mohamed Mamdouh to happen this summer
5. The guy showing off his ripped body while almost revealing his pubic hair
6. Girls on a boat tanning as if they’re in St. Tropez wana mesh wakhda bali. In reality homma akherhom bo7ayrat Marina
7. And of course the boat driver. The photo of the cool guy with a hat and sunglasses behind the wheel
8. We should never forget the feet photo either showing the beach or showing off your private pool in your big summer house.
9. Some people chill at the beach, but others know that life is too short and can’t even take a break from sports on a weekend, so they have to document the beach side planks and squats with some estefzaz hashtags #EarlyBird #NotLazy #SportsForLife #ForTheLoveOfSports #Sa7elBeast
10. And of course the beach book that you’ve only read it’s prologue
11. The yoga pose that pains our souls as we will never master it in our lives
12. Instagramming a photo of the latest hottest beach bag made by a local designer that is so overpriced and is actually not that cool but you gotta own one or else you’re eww
13. Yet the biggest cliche’ of them all! A photo of us making fun of everyone who dares have fun because we want to do those things, yet we are too lazy to even take off our PJs
WE SAID THIS: Begad batalo tegebolna shalal!
