   [blank_start]Although[blank_end] I have travelled to many different places, the place that made the strongest impression on me is Siwa in Egypt.

[blank_start]Even though[blank_end] there is a road which connects Siwa to the outside world, it is a difficult place to reach - by car it can take up to ten hours and by bus it can take even longer.

[blank_start]In order to[blank_end] fully appreciate the beauty of this place, it is necessary to take a trip into the desert [blank_start]as[blank_end] this will reveal the magic of the Sahara to you. Remember to pack some warm clothes; [blank_start]despite[blank_end] the intense heat, once the sun goes down, the desert becomes incredibly cold.
