A STORY WAS TOLD .

Visiting Morocco has been a dream. I’ve always wanted to ride a camel, see the desert, explore medinas, and drink tea(Atay) with Berbers.I stood overlooking the Sahara on morning, marveling at the rhythmic, undulating dunes of the desert.

For miles around, the dunes rolled waves in the sea. I had ridden a camel to the spot where I would gaze at a million stars that night, smiling at the fact I was finally somewhere in peace faraway from stress of the big cities where people are like robot ,and I was here that moment in medetation with nature under the same stars thousands of miles away.

For two weeks, I traveled around the country and gorged myself on couscous, drank my body weight in mint tea, hiked, and absorbed the sights and sounds of Morocco.
