I'm not new to any game. I first made money from Internet in mid 90's when we used to make 2.5 cents per click and I would leave a bot on IRC overnight to make $20+/day as young college lad.

I've been to many countries around the world for business, photography & leisure. This year due to COVID me and my GF decided to visit Morocco as an alternative country. Many propaganda sources tried to scare us, including US State Department advising it as very dangerous. In lieu of that we ended up hiring private guides to do tour of Morocco which was a lot more expensive than doing group tour but it gave us opportunity to do things on our own. Much to our shock we found Moroccan people most hospitable I've ever encountered and there was no crime or aggression against us at all. It was nice for us to have our "bodyguards" to help us avoid regular tourist beggars and such.

With that in mind I hope to see if I can introduce myself to BHW Moroccans. We fell in love with the country so much that I'm currently finalizing 2nd trip for this year and this time visiting new parts of the country with my Berber family.

Currently on my agenda would be to check out Ouadalia for a week of relaxing, revisit Chef the Blue City, revisit Little Switzerland with more time with monkeys & hopefully catching fall colors, revisiting Dades Gorge and this time camping with Nomad family in the mountains, visiting a few new places and ending up Marakkech before flying back home.

Where my Berber brothers be at? I'd love to meet some people in person that have things of value to add to conversation and can benefit from having conversation with me.

PS. My Berber name is Jamal :)
 
Hi ! Yeah I'm from morocco (I just created my account rn to answer to your topic I usually just read!)
How r u doing? If u want to come to us in Saidia one day just come ! <3

And btw, don't worry like u know for the next time there's no tourist beggars or anything there's some people that come from Africa to go to Europe that are here begging and stuff like that but uk there's beggars everywhere, u seem like a very nice person !
But yeah it is better to have someone with you who talks Darija (moroccan arabic dialect) or even french cuz a lot of people here speak french if u only speak english it could be, u know, a little difficult :)

Like I said everyone scared us of Morocco as being very bad and it was the opposite. I'm from NYC and used to completely ignoring homeless people and not afraid of anyone approaching me. Everyone scared us making it sound Morocco was 10 times worse than NYC.

I looked up Saidia and I'm not going that far on this trip but I will consider travelling that more North East. I saw a cool farm stay in Tizi Ouasli area but my Berber brothers told me it would be too far from Ifrane where we plan to go after Chef. Next time I will visit your area and Tazekka National Park.

I'm honored that I've made someone sign up to BHW and perhaps our paths will cross some day. Inshallah my Berber brother!
