Marrakesh

A memory map of our stay in Marrakesh, showing my morning run with Louis into the walled city.

We traveled from Casablanca to Marrakesh by coach which took 4 hours. But time passed quickly as we alternated between gently dozing after our Moroccan breakfast and savouring the views of green fields and farmhouses. We passed several small towns; clusters of buildings leading up to a castle or a mosque at the top of a hill - I imagined myself living here for a year, working with my hands, in the open fields harvesting lavender or olives.

I took some photos knowing that they will not convey what I saw with my eyes and in my mind.
