Morocco is a country rich in history, tradition and culture!
And it is also one of the most exotic of travel destinations in the world!

It is one country that won’t leave you indifferent… Once you surrender to its many charms it will seduce you, as I was!
Come discover and enjoy the beauty of some of the random pics that I took during my first trip in the land of the setting sun!!!

After nearly 14 hours of flight, me and Rheem are ready to discover Morocco for the first time!!!
This is the first picture I took of this beautiful land!
Welcome to Casablanca!!!
Casablanca is really a very unique city, you will find some places super luxury and others still locked in the ancient times!
I really enjoyed that I found a traditional shoe maker on the streets in Casa! Lovely!
Just near where I was staying, there was this Sfenj seller still cooking in the traditional ways! Check below to know what is Sfenj!
Sfenj is a Moroccan savory fried dough which is eaten hot on the stop! I can't recall how many I ate! A lot!!!
The abundance of fruits is just amazing in Morocco! It was the first time I got to discover these Barbarian Figs! It is really very sweet to eat and is from the cactus plant!
On a specific area in Casa, you will notice many of these white two wheels trucks selling one of the most famous soup in Morocco! I never knew that Moroccans love these! Check below to know what they sell!
Hmmm yes Snail soup! It is called Bebouch in Morocco!
Bebouch is popular year round, especially during the winter.
The soup broth is a concoction of 15 different spices including thyme, aniseed and licorice root. Every gulp of broth ignites the back of the throat with a tingly sensation.
It was so hot when I visited Morocco and you feel so thirsty! No worries, you will find this amazing man dressed in a colorful dress selling fresh cold water served in copper glasses! It is really refreshing!
In the city of Tangier, I found these donkeys which are still a type of transportation!
I enjoyed a horse cart tour when I was in Marrakech! Unforgettable experience!
I also got the opportunity to visit a distant village in the region of Marrakech! It felt like I went back in time! But it was great!
In this village I got to taste a traditional food... Grilled lamb liver and heart! It was so delicious!
Fresh beef cuts on sale in open air, I have never seen that in my life! In Morocco this is a normal practice and the beef quality is really good! Check below how I tasted the beef!
Oh yes, the best Tajine ever! Cooked on charcoal with the fresh beef above and plenty of veggies, simply marvelous!
As I told you earlier, fruits are in abundance there! The Moroccan oranges, especially the one in Marrakech is known as one of the sweetest in the world! And it is true!
To end up the journey, I was so happy to finally see an olive tree with olives on it! This was in the Rif mountains! The olives plantation is just unbelievable! There were olives everywhere!
So here we are dear friends some random photos of my first trip in Morocco!
How you find this country? As for me it is sure that I will be visiting this land again and again as I still have a lot to discover!
