3rd Place: Soudeh Motamedi’s American-Egyptian host family in Cairo took her to the “Friday Market,” where locals buy everything from broken tiles to high-end electronics.

Her photo was submitted to Abroad View's Meta Photo Contest by Syracuse University, from where Motamedi graduated in May 2008 with M.A. degrees in economics and international relations. |
