Exploring Morocco by Way of Agadir
Morocco is a magical place. Exotic, sometimes chaotic, mysterious, and often rather diverse.
Guelmim, Gateway to the Sahara
We stayed in numerous cities in Morocco, and I’d have to say that Guelmim was probably my favorite place. Essaouira was a close second, but mostly because they have a great beach, and I’m quite partial to beaches. While other areas of Morocco are amazing and definitely unique experiences, I loved Guelmim the most because it was extremely authentic. It isn’t made for tourists, and it hasn’t really bought into...
Morocco travel tips
Since we’ve finally left the country, I figured I’d put together my Morocco travel tips for folks. Morocco is truly an amazing place (but not for food), and I really believe that it should be on everyone’s must-see list.

You can just imagine the flavors from strange spices and seasonings, right? Well, I’m going to have to burst that bubble. Basically, Moroccan food sucks. Sure, a nice tajine or couscous sounds delightful. As does my favorite dish, b’stella. I love quickly breaking the powdered...
A Letter to Morocco
Dear Maroc, I hope it’s okay to call you that. I know it’s only been 2 months, but I feel like we’ve shared enough to be on a more personal basis. May I just start by saying how much you confuse and amaze me? I’m pretty adept at picking up on cultures and things, and well, every time I think I’ve got you nailed down you laugh a little and surprise me. Good for you! One thing has really struck me about...
