It’s been one year since I first arrived in Morocco.  Nervous.  Intimidated.  First time in Africa. First time in an Islamic country.

But extremely excited. You see, I’d dreamed about travelling to Morocco since I watched Hideous Kinky in 1999.  I was finally here.

So I quickly got over those feelings and fell in love with everything about this country.

And it just so happened that I was also looking to make a major change in my life. I was thinking about moving to the USA, New York or Chicago.

But nothing seemed to fit better than Morocco.  It’s like I tried it on for size, and it fit perfectly!  So here I am…one year later!
