Fouad took us on a whirlwind tour of the medina in Fes, to the studios of traditional artisans, to the gates of the royal palace, to a tannery that remains unchanged since medieval times. We were utterly intoxicated when we finally boarded the train to Rabat, red faced, soaked in sweat. [more]

An old man grabbed our bags from the back of the taxi and walked so fast we almost lost him through the winding streets of the medina. For 10 minutes our senses were assaulted by bursts of colour and noise that jumped from the darkness. We turned down a tight alley that twisted its way [...]

I flew from Tangier to Madrid, Madrid to London yesterday. I have about 1,700 photos to sort through and a lot of stories to tell. If I can say one thing to you at this point, it’s that you should go to Morocco. Immediately. She is a magical beast. Thank you so much to my [...]
