Morocco
Finally, a post on Morocco.
Morocco is a remarkable country. It’s where the Middle East meets Africa, and it’s a traveler’s paradise full of mosques, markets, tajines, and couscous. I spent the most of my 11 or so days in the city of Fes, north of Casablanca. Fes had the most amazing old quarter where you could wander around for hours and it felt like you were in the middle ages. French was widely spoken in Morocco so I had a chance to brush up on my high school skills, and I’m glad to say that I was understood most of the time.
The only downside of Morocco was that it was even more difficult being a single female there than it was in Egypt. I often felt uncomfortable and annoyed walking alone. After traveling for 5 months, ending (for now) in Morocco was wearing on my nerves, so I decided to go to Sweden a week earlier than planned so that I could spend a longer time relaxing with my relatives, and maybe even get a start on my college essays (gross).
