PASSION ABOUT MOROCCO

I have recently returned from two fascinating months in Morocco- a country full of contrasting landscapes, interesting smells, vibrant sights and unusual experiences. In a country of endless possibility, one can wonder through the deep cultural history, trek through the ever changing orange hues of the desert, surf the waves of Essaouira or enjoy the continuous theatre of the souks.

I lost myself in the mystical dunes, haggled hard, indulged in the mayhem of Marrakesh, experienced my first true Moroccan hammam, admired the architectural styles of Casablanca, marvelled at the red-baked mud Kasbahs beneath the foot hills of the High Atlas, embraced by a Berber family who were among some of the most hospitable, welcoming and beautiful people I have ever met.

As a photographer and artist I couldn’t dream of more in a country – it’s a sensory overload. It is a country in which I have become immensely passionate about. I have travelled all over the world, but have never become so drawn to a country that I didn’t want to leave.
