My Neighbourhood Essay

The first occasion by which I heard about Cully, was not a good one. It was mentioned as being a troubled area that needed a lot of help. In my mind, a lot of neighborhoods need help; what makes Cully so special? Everyone keeps talking about it, but I don’t see what the big deal is.

I grew up in my home country Egypt, in a time some may say I was lucky to have experienced and been a part of.
