Dag 1
E-Sim, airport lounges and NordVPN
10. april 2023, Schweiz ⋅ ☁️ 15 °C
On the way….
The train ride Brig -Zürich airport takes a good 2.5h. Enough time to study all providers of e-sim cards.

Mobile
I decided to use airalo. No 10 dollars to be able to use mobile data for 10days in Morocco.
The app covers about 200 country’s and for little money I escape do expensive data packages for abroad my provider. If it works, I will continue to use the app for the following trip, Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand. Besides, check the mail and do the last things that you just have to do….

Priority Pass
The airport Zürich gave rise to talk with long waiting times in the last days. I am 3.5h early on the airport, prepares for long queues in the security area. But everything quiet, simple, uncomplicated. And 3/4h after arrival of the train, I sit already fully eaten and with the first Bloodymary in the airport lounge.
Yes exactly. The lounge card is a good investment for people who stay at airports from time to time. Free food, free drinks, coffee without end, wifi, showers and clean sanitary facilities, comfortable chairs for a minimum annual fee snd a one-time fee per visit, the lounges are available at all airports worldwide. For all those who know the Swiss prices, especially at Zürich airport, I can only recommend the card, you can not enjoy the airport cheaper. And the card has also helped me with involuntary stopovers, Im thinking of Moscow….

Nord VPN
To be able surf safely, I still activate Nord VPN. A good online VPN service provides you with a secure, encrypted tunnel through which your online traffic can flow safely. This way, no one can view your online data or find out your real IP address and location.
Nord VPN is the bestVPN service if you connect to insecure public Wi-Fi networks. Thanks to VPN, you can safely access your personal data as well as your work files. Besides, while surfing, your privacy is preserved and no one can see what you are doing online.
Especially when you want research or book airline tickets, it can help to change your location via NordVPN. Sometimes it makes sense to book the tickets under a different country IP address if they are much cheaper there. A subscription coast for 2years between 3 and 6 dollars/month, so totally ok.

So… and now everything is ready to go. With a stopover in Paris we are off: Morocco!Læs mere

Morocco... during Ramadan is a bit of a challenge. Everything is closed, even the restaurants.

In the hotel in Casablanca, I had to change rooms twice. In the first one, the toilet was full of urine splashes, the shower was dirty and the bed was not freshly made. The second one was clean at first sight, but when I went to bed it was full of pubic hair....
So I moved to Lan's room.
Then the next bang: from the 2 night I should spend the night with a stranger in the room. Somehow my bookings got lost, all paid and I may pay every night again if I insist on the single room....
So I spend the night communicating with the agency, which can't help. The guide we found about the. Agency have booked, just annoying. The stands in the middle of the night with the management of the hotel in front of the room door and wants to force me to take another room. I stay calm and close the door. Every other word is "go with Allah" and I could scream. Leave Allah on the side. He won't tip you.

That the food would not be mine, I knew. The vegetables are swimming in oil and overcooked. There are no water dispensers. You can buy water, in plastic bottles that are lying around everywhere on the street, in the fields. Not as bad as in Zanzibar, but bad.
Just as in Zanzibar, the men sit around lazily or pray and the women work. I and Africa have understood, we will never be friends.Læs mere

I no longer have a fever, accordingly my mood was much better today!
In the morning we visited a ceramics factory outside of Fez. The mosaic artists or ceramic painters impressed me incredibly.

I personally like Fes much better than Casablanca. We started at the royal palace, strolled through the Jewish quarter and meandered through the narrow streets of the medina. The arts and crafts are amazing and the architecture simply stunning.Læs mere

For the part where the leather is tanned, however, you need a strong stomach or enough mint to cope with the acrid smell.

Today we had Aziz as our guide, an incredibly good and charming historian and architect, we could not have met better. History can be so exciting....

We are now complete for the desert trip: about 15 people, 12 women and 3 men from all over the world. India, Scotland, England, Romania, Canada, Germany, USA and Switzerland. Together we are going to the desert tomorrow for the next 3 days.
The mood is very good, we laugh a lot and the conversations are very amusing.

None of the group can see the food anymore. So we just bought fruits and bread everywhere, even alcohol we found. With the result that we now take about 100 bottles of beer and a few bottles of wine with us into the desert. Lan is happy.

Tripadvisor helps us tonight to find a nice local, with good Moroccan falafel, tubule and humus. That will certainly be tasty.Læs mere

Tomorrow we start at 6.00am in the direction of the desert. The next days we will be on the camel.
I am packing and in the house next door, the meal has started after sunset. I can not help it: I sit on the rooftop and listen to the singing.Læs mere

Middel Atlas or Switzerland?!
14. april 2023, Marokko ⋅ ☀️ 11 °C
Update regarding food: despite tripadvisor, there was nothing to eat last night. Everything was closed. And since we already left at 6 o'clock, breakfast was also cancelled today.

A long drive is ahead and I have downloaded movies for safety. Completely unnecessary. The landscape is stunning. Every 2h it changes completely. We start in Ifrane:

Ifrane is a small town in Morocco, also known as the Switzerland of Morocco because of its European-influenced architecture.
Located at an altitude of 1,650 meters, the city surprises. Around the city is the largest cedar forest in the world. These trees erect their solemn silhouettes on the slopes of the Middle Atlas Mountains, which they cover with a mantle of green.

In winter, I. is the ski resort of the rich and is considered the cleanest place on all of Africa.Læs mere
