Last November, I visited Morocco for the first time. I found myself up to my ears in olives and tagines and enthralled with the chaos of the local souks (markets/bazaars) I visited. To check out my Morocco coverage from the trip, head over here. Now that the trip has been over for months, all I…
BREAKING: I just got off the phone with an American Airlines spokesperson (who I won’t name for fear of losing his/her job at divulging advance information) and there is a development so delicious coming down the pipeline that you will most likely cancel all existing reservations and rebook your travel plans exclusively with American from…
Are you ready to say goodbye to Morocco? No? I wasn’t either, but here we are. Friends, we’ve come to the last photo tour of my trip to Morocco (thanks to the wonderful Pompeian Olive Oil company). If you’d like to recap the first three days of my trip, please do so: Photo Tour: Morocco…
What’s it like to attend a dinner party in the home of rich Moroccans?

There’s only one language you need to know and that’s the language of cash. I’ve been traveling through Morocco this week and despite the fact that I don’t speak French or Arabic, I was…
Dear Friends. I’m about to embark upon my first trip to Africa. Tomorrow, I’ll leave Los Angeles and find myself in Morocco by the end of the weekend. This is one of the first times I’ve gone to a destination where I have no idea what to expect. That’s why I’m calling on you, the…
