WELCOME TO PARADISE
MOROCCO | Wednesday, 20 June 2007 | Views [654]
We do love Morocco ! Such a beautiful country, such nice people, such good food... All about Morocco is great !
Since we put our feet on the African ground, our trip took a much more exotic turn. Longing the Atlantic coast with our mopeds, we visited Tanger, Rabat, Casablanca, Essaouira and Agadir. Riding here is even more pleasant than in Europe as the temperatures get warmer. Our expedition attracts more and more curiosity, other French people we meet can't believe we arrived here with our mopeds, whereas Moroccans are impressed by the good state of our vehicles !
Meanwhile, we enjoy the Moroccan way of life loosing ourselves in the little streets of the medinas, going for shopping in the local souks, smelling the colored spices in the market, bargaining for jewellery, drinking mint teas, treating ourselves with a delicious tajine or couscous... Morocco has so much to offer. But most of all, we love the welcoming spirit of local people : there is not one hour when you don't hear in the street somebody telling you "Bienvenue au Maroc". People is simply gentle, cheerful and kind. Some of them are even more than that, inviting us for a typical meal in their place after a two-minutes conversation in the street. Thereby we had the chance to share great times with Amin, Jaouad, Saïd and their families. Those moments spent with them have been really special and we'll remember them as some of the highlights of the trip.
It's now time for us to head to the desert and Western Sahara... Let's guess we'll have some more stories to tell !
