... snakes and their charmers. Oh and monkeys on
leashes. These I kept well away from, fascinated but not wanting any part of
it. The snakes were either on the ground being kicked occasionally so they
would flare up and look interesting, or hanging in a circle from one of the
charmers hands looking dead. The monkeys were sullenly following their masters
or sitting on their shoulders. We went home for a rest as it was super hot at
this point.

From the fun flats of Marrakech...we made our way to the High Atlas mountains for well...mountains of magnificent hiking and views.
Jebel Toubkal stands at 4200m above sea level and at that is the highest most point in northern Africa and also a bit of a mission! We made it up the mighty mountain in a few days and did some sleeping, sun burning and Scrabble in there as well. An absolutely incredible adventure!
Back down and all set to embark on a road trip to Fez!

After immense Irish experiences and an interesting and equally incredible adventure in Italy i arrived in Morocco having met both big brother Jage and eventually Stewart in Milan...
We made our way to the mad, mixed and amazing Marrakech with a few friends we found along the way and ended up in the midst of Ramadan at a funky guesthouse hidden away in the ...

I’ve never had a straight-razor shave from a barber. And I never thought the first time would be in an Arabic city, in a narrow shop we’ve passed going home, but here I am – on the recommendation of our riad owner. The barber used a soft bristle brush, of course, and a cream that frothed with encouragement from the brush and a bit of water. He keeps adding water because ...
... was hilarious – trying to get us to agree that Alex had to pay more for a certain pair of slippers because they were hand stitched – it was very funny, lots of tongue in cheek all round – we emerge from the shop around an hour later.
Once again its late and we decide to get a taxi back to the riad – it becomes clear after a short while that the driver has no idea where he is going – he shouts out to a boy on a moped and then starts to ...
... ask if you may take a picture, the answer is almost certainly no. If you get a yes, it is because you've asked if they'd mind. If you ask why, they will tell you, it is against their religion. This is hard to argue against. However, one thing would easily change everything: Lots of people will ask for money if you want to take a picture. Maybe I just misunderstood, did they say it's the prophet or the profit that matters?
Marrakech, Morocco sabaidii... money after forcing them on him. Like, are these people mental? I'm sure most tourists punch them when they do that. Men grabbed me and tried every stategy to get me into bed with them. I can understand in a Muslim counrty why men are so persistent with western women but I mean come on. I had a man with me! We actually did pretend that we were a couple so that I would be left alone, though most of the time it made no difference. With our hostel, we signed up ...
Marrakech, Morocco elanaUm grupo de desconhecidos encontram-se na Portela as 7.00 da manhã de
25 de Abril, apresentam-se e aqui nasce uma amizade. Uma amizade que
foi ficando muito coesa durante esses curtos 8 dias de aventura que
passamos. Momentos difíceis. Momentos divertidos, muitos momentos muito
divertidos, alias a maior parte deles.
Um pais com uma cor fantástica, com uma cultura estranha, mas muito viva e marcada, resumindo um pais que me fascinou.

... simply can't find work, so they just hang out. It is hard to see because they don't look pathetic, just bored, a victim of their society just as certain people are in the U.S., except they don't complain (more on that later). We moved on to Marrakech by night train, where I was treated to a show of Moroccan cell phone etiquette. Like the Spaniards, it is horrendous, and seems not to take into account either the vibrate feature or the ring-silencer. The rolling ...
