General view of Telouet at sunrise!

hi thanks for this address in Tamanar, do you have the phone number? I’ll stop by on my next trip! I went there once a long time ago—there was an argan cooperative! And I think the salt flats are in that region too! Can’t wait to revisit these beautiful places! francia

hi Daniel I’ll try the guesthouse in Skoura another time, but I have to admit I didn’t have much luck the first time I went there! the hostel was dark and really dusty, and the welcome wasn’t great! we were the only ones at the hostel (5 girls) we didn’t see the owner, and the meal really wasn’t great! but hey, I think we just didn’t have much luck! francia

hi You gave me a cooking idea! I made sardines on the barbecue—so good—just with olive oil and herbs! thanks francia

Hi Daniel, I’ll try the guesthouse in Skoura another time, but I must admit I wasn’t lucky the first time I went there! The hostel was dark and really dusty, and the welcome wasn’t great! We were the only ones at the hostel (5 girls). We didn’t see the owner, and the meal really wasn’t great! But I guess we just weren’t lucky that day! Francia

Unlucky indeed. It’s rare for people to be disappointed by this hostel. It just wasn’t the right day!

Hi Béatrice! I’ll jot down your address in Tiznit... Before, I used to go to Patrick’s place in Aglou, but now he lives right next to me, so no more ocean view! Too bad! But we get to eat his wife’s delicious couscous more often! francia

Hello thanks I hope we can go to Paradis D'Aguinane soon! I’ve noted the route! More beautiful discoveries to make in this lovely country! francia

hi Hannah, I was in the village of Oumesnat...

to the right of the hostel L'arganier! if you're in the area, the house is to the right after crossing the oued! About 500 meters! it’s rented out to Germans, I think! my ex-husband’s Berber family home! usually, I stay in Tafraout when I go there! okay, I’m off to look for the Lion!

hello Aït Mansour, still so beautiful!

thanks

hi in Tigmert too... and I think at a Brahim’s place



but there are so many Brahims! in any case, it’s a great spot! with a beautiful museum!

Hi there Yes, that’s definitely a Brahim! !

hi that second photo is the kasbah of Tizourgane! I knew it when it was sadly run-down, but luckily Jamal Moussali did a great job renovating it! it’s an amazing building I always admired on my way up to Tafraout via Aït Baha! I really need to go back! thanks francia

For the blue tajines, I don’t think I kept the little card they gave me before leaving. But I’ll check and let you know. Otherwise, Danouck might have it...

hi 350 km of trekking... I'm in awe! still along the Ocean, all the way to Sidi Ouarzik... so cool!

a beautiful marabout in Sidi Ouarsik

the mouth of the Noun River—there’s no road beyond this point! Unless construction’s been done since then!

and of course, fig trees, fig trees! the region’s new gold! I tried it—didn’t work on my wrinkles 😕 and it’s hard on the wallet! but when you love it!!!

hi there, and that’s when I learned of Ahmed Chaoki’s passing! so sad—my last visit was in 2016! I hadn’t met him that day, but he was one of those slightly mad, dreamy artists who do us so much good... a second Facteur Cheval, just like so many others!

unfortunately, it might well disappear if his family can’t keep it alive! oh, but those "blue rocks" will be painted, repainted, and repainted again ;) so much paint poured over those pebbles! the Belgian painter wouldn’t recognize them anymore!

hi Borj Biramane will also be on my next stops! I’ve always hesitated—I was leaning toward Amtoudi because of the Rough Guide’s description: "in an arid environment, in the middle of nowhere." But luckily, your love for the place is making me change my mind! Gorgeous photos... It looks so tempting, I’d love to go and hole up there! 😏 thanks

hello Minou and yes, Chibania still has good eyesight and she watched the lion every day... when going up or down from Oumesnat to Tafraout!

This one isn't great! I've got a better one... but I need to find it! There we go! I'll look for it later! Hope you're doing well! Where are you right now? Still on the planet? Kisses

hi You missed the Lion because, unlike me, you're athletic and you walk... I take three steps and then I admire 😮 That's my main sport! !😎 Thanks to everyone for sharing! We can keep going, by the way! francia Tafraout seen from the Hôtel Salama!

Here’s the map I photographed. We didn’t book ahead, but it’s sometimes safer to let them know you’re coming. Have a great day.

Last night on Arte: The Man Who Knew Too Much by Alfred Hitchcock.

A film shot in 1957, the first part of which takes place in Marrakech.

Fun to see old images of the city!
