Authentic Moroccan mint tea… or as we were told over and over again, Berber whisky, is by far the most drank beverage in Morocco. The tea is made from mint leaves and a boatload of sugar…and is just to die for when it’s made and served in an authentic, traditional way.  It’s easy to get…

It was blue and really pretty, but that’s about where the dreamland stopped. Visiting Chefchaouen was more of a nightmare. After our quick, ye eventful time in…

When planning where to go after the Sahara Desert we went back and forth between visiting Fez, stopping in Meknes before Fez, or just going straight to Chefchaouen (the iconic blue city). With the unexpected colder temperatures, we decided to skip Fez and go straight to Chefchaouen. However, we had a three-hour “bus layover” for…

Visiting the Todra Gorge was the best surprise stop on our trip to Morocco. It’s a place we didn’t expect and now one we recommend everyone to visit! When we booked our trip to Morocco, we had two places we really wanted to see – The Sahara Desert and the Blue City. Since we were…
