  • Favorite Thing: The first morning I was at Marrakech I asked a guide to show me the city ... to learn how to move and to explain me a little of the better monuments ... and souk ....

    He was a very good guide of about my age, and I had a very good time with him. He took me to Saadies Tombs .. to Bahia Palais, to Merdesa ... and to the souk ...
    I bought with him few things ... and ... help me to learn how to bargain ... :)))))))

    The man in the pic is a tipical guide ... with the chilaba ...Its not minen ... the guide that helped me was dress normaly ...

    you can ask for a guide at the tourist office .. but also you will find them anywhere ...

  • Favorite Thing: Its true that there are people asking for many ... to tourist and to muslim ...
    is it not a part of the coran that they must give money to whom is aking for it ...

    I saw people seeting at the mosque's doors asking for money ...

    but to me ...while I was walking ... only I was asked for money 3 time in 5 days ... not so much ...
    The funny thing is ... " are people needed of that money ????? " if they need the money ... why they ask you for euros :)))

    I was asked by a little boy for money ... he wanted 2 euros from me ... :)))) he spoked me in spanish when he new I was from there .... I told him that I didnt had euros ... I did only had dirhams ... but he refused dirhams ... .... he had a wonderful face ... I loved the face of that little boy ... so smillling face ... so bright ... so clever .....

    I dont use to give money at the streets to people that ask for it ... I dont think is a good thing ...

  • Favorite Thing: In Marrakech you can see women dressed as occidental women ... but if you don't want to be looked or men to say you things ... just try to use big things ...
    I walked after women that wear tight trousers or Tshirts ... and they tell them things ... and look at them very much ... (they don't say bad things .. only .. I supouse ... nice things ...)
    I used always big bluse ... and a scarf for my neck ... and ... they didn't disturbed me so much ...
    at night ... some times ... as I have a little blond my hair ... I covered my head ... is not that I had to ... but ... just because I felt better ...
    you don't have to dress like the pic woman
