The majority of Moroccan travellers plan to visit the Sahara, the largest hot desert in the world. And nowhere is the desert more accessible than here in Morocco.…
For many people, Morocco is a dream from 1001 nights, a foreign, fascinating world. I fell in love with this country during my first holiday in Morocco, a hiking tour in the Sahara. A few years later I moved here. And I still find new reasons to love this country all the time.
Morocco seems to be a country that people either love or hate. There is not much in between. I love it! But of course, there are some things that are very annoying, even to me.
If you have never visited a Middle Eastern or North African city, you are probably unfamiliar with the terms medina and souk. Find out what they mean in this post.
Rabat, the capital of Morocco, doesn’t make it on many tourists’ itineraries. Which in my opinion is a mistake, as the city has a lot to offer.
Morocco is one of the most interesting and diverse countries in the world. There are many reasons to visit Morocco. Not only culture and people, but also the country’s nature and architecture invite you to make one or more trips.
Essaouira is by far my absolute favourite city in Morocco. I’ve been there 3 times, each time for at least a week. And I just don’t get bored there.
Visiting beautiful mosques is a very special experience and one you can only have in a few places around the world if you are not a Muslim.
A lot of people who visit Morocco wonder about the situation of the women here. There are many prejudices, and I’m sure some of them are true. Living here gives me more opportunities to look behind the curtain and see what’s really going on.
My expectations weren’t high when I visited Tangier, as I had heard it wasn’t interesting and possibly dangerous. So, I was very pleasantly surprised when I found this to be untrue!
