finally posting photos from the amazing trip to morocco. we travelled all the way east from marrakech to the desert, a couple of kilometers away from algiers, and back. there were so many highlights from the trip, the biggest of all was probably the local people and their warmth and hospitality, despite the fact that our cultures differ so much. we didn't cease to be surprised and appreciative of the beautiful architecture and the intricate moroccan designs. the magnificent desert and the dawn camel ride was so serene. the local markets, abundant with local artisanal arts and crafts, were bursting with color and energy. the music was so alluring as well and our bodies couldn't stop dancing when we visited some of the dance clubs in the modern marrakech. our visit to hammam, or a moroccan bathhouse, was unforgettable and , after hours of being scrubbed with olive oil soap, we emerged from the establishment feeling reborn and renewed. the spirit of this country fascinates me to this day. i definitely must return.
