Morocco has changed a tremendous amount since I left nine years ago – and so have I. The truth is, during my time in Morocco, I did most of what I wanted to do here with the exception of taking a road trip to the South of Morocco and Mauritania – but that’s not something…
Returning to Morocco – I Love Morocco
It’s such a strange thing to come back to a place you once lived. At this point in my life, with where I am today versus where I was back in 2009 when I arrived here the first time – there is such a vast chasm of experience and perspective. Not to mention the contrast…

Arriving in Colombo, Sri Lanka
Well – it was a much stranger journey than I expected, but I won’t complain. Part of travel is to embrace the unexpected – which I did my best to do. Interestingly, the plane I was originally scheduled to arrive on – has not arrived in Sri Lanka – not because it disappeared in the…
