I lived in sharm and hurghada for over 5years loved it but its not like when you come on holidays like the other posters said. Life isn't as easy as it appears, for me, I was lucky always had a well paid job with accomadation and bills paid for work 8-3 and off weekends so I was able enjoy my life there. I have many friends who work in animation who don't have the luxury of that; working 14hours a day ,paid about 500 dollars ,living in staff accommodation shared bedroom in hotels with 1day off a week. Animation is a difficult job, I understand you want to start your own team but as others said firstly tourism is completly down hotels are no way near capacity most are relatively empty they won't want any extra costs they have their own teams. Secondly the visa situation I know of people who have been deported in sharm for working without a work permit, you need to b sponsored by your work for this visa and if your planning on working free lance then that isn't possible. I know British DJs who work in sharm /hurghada also had that problem now just work in one club instead of various ones due to visa restrictions. If you are intent on coming to live in sharm I would suggest come out first and try to secure a job, if you're a dancer I would suggest the bigger clubs as they pay well from what I know .animation is possibly the hardest ,worst paid job you can get here, have you any other skills that would be useful here? I don't mean to sound negative like I said I loved my life in sharm and hurghada would still be there except for change in personal circumstances but you need to be aware its not as perfect as it seems on holidays you need a well paid job with all the benefits to enjoy it. Best of luck
