Return from Morocco

I am back safe and sound from my adventure to Morocco! I spent an amazing two weeks traipsing around Morocco with two friends from the States, Katie and Carrie. We all met in Casablanca on April 12 and hopped a train to the Ourika Valley that night where we stayed at a small hotel near the Atlas Mountains. We spent the next few days exploring Marrakesh and the Cascades d'Ouzoud where we hiked in the Atlas Mountains. Katie and I then set off to Essaouira, a beautiful, quiet beach town where a classical music festival was taking place. Finally, Katie and I spent the last few days of our vacation in Fes before returning to Casablanca for our final night in Morocco.

Morocco was a vibrant and incredible country! I will be sure to share more of my Moroccan travel adventures this week, but in the meantime I will leave you with some pictures.
