Finally made it to my dream destination - Morocco!!! 😁
My H being a backpacker has visited so many continents through road when there were no smart phones or GPS or even digital cameras. I do believe that we get to remember memories from those times more as we knew there was no other way to capture and save all those incredible memories in a drive. There is never a dull day in our lives. If we get stuck in a small town in a corner of the world with no internet or a camping site with no phone coverage, no need to worry at all on how to get entertained. He never runs out of stories and experiences to share.
One such place he visited a long time ago is Morocco that made a big impact on me by merely listening to all the stories that H had shared and definitely not by looking at any photos or blogs from the internet (there was very little information about these strange but beautiful places on the internet unlike in 2020). He took all his photos with the 35mm Camera which was a luxury for him to carry around in those days.
Sharing the posts for the Morocco series based on the route we took on world map, covering around 2000 kilo meters in two weeks time.

Here is the Route that the travel enthusiast at home, my H, came up with. I din’t understand the detail on mapping a route 3 months before a travel until i was there and saw how quickly we could coordinate the next step as everything was very organized especially in countries where travel can get hectic. It is a brilliant planning and i very much appreciate him for the planning.
I have had many people ask me for the route and I hope this helps many who want to travel to Morocco. We had to trade off between Chef Chauoen and Casa Blanca because of the route and time constraint. I picked the Blue City which is Chef Chauoen. So our entry point had to be Tangier. If you are not planning to go to Chef Chauoen, try getting directly to Fes instead.
