There are 8 or so rooms throughout the house, each unique. Ours was large and right off the courtyard so not very private. The bathroom was very small with a makeshift shower. In comparison, it would've been nice to stay in one of the other rooms especially since they were not occupied. Nice rooftop terrace.

A Cooking Class in Fes

Starting with 40Euros if you don't show up with a printed boarding pass, another 70Euros for an additional bag maximum …

The easiest way to get here from Zanzibar would have been to fly into Europe and then back out again, but that seemed gutless. The hardest way would have been tow walk but that, I’m ashamed to say, held even less appeal. So we went on a complicated circle, …

Morrocan hospitality
... we were to have met Abdoul on the train. He has been the most generous and welcoming person to Gary and I, and we really owe alot to him. He has made Fes a very memorable experience so far. He showed us his house and introduced us to his beautiful family (wife, two daughters, and a son). He drove us around the city and took us out to dinner again. And tomorrow he is going to takes us to a Hammam and drive us around the countryside.
