Day 119 - Morocco 🇲🇦

May 21, 2021

Tonight we’re taking a quick trip to Morocco, the only African country I’ve had the pleasure of visiting.

Morocco is a country of searing dry heat, aromatic dishes, kasbahs and as it turns out lots of goats. I heard that Morocco is somewhat known for its tree-climbing goats. We mostly saw goats teaming up with cows to raid rubbish bins though.

This is the first (and only) time I’ve ever seen a goat raiding a bin

We visited the lesser-known coastal city of Essaouira, a place known for its year-round winds and cool micro-climate. We stayed in the wonderful guest house of Dar Sahil. Dar Sahil is possibly one of the most wonderful places I’ve ever stayed. Run by a lovely warm French couple (who referred to us as “elegance British”), Dar Sahil is an old Berber building surrounded by an organ orchard. 

Anyway, enjoy a few pictures from our trip, and happy Friday!
