Couscous and Hawai

July 9, 2008 - 7:36am by Fishaaaaaaaa

I cannot stress enough how delicious and wholesome the food is here. I love the coffee and pastries, and Morocco in general has a sweet tooth. Things are going great, and lately our family is bonding more and more. The language barrier is becoming obsolete. We're starting to communicate with hand gestures and silly sounds. Even if it's something as subtle as BAWK BAWK CHICKEN, it's "bien." It's fun to play around with Spanish, French, Arabic, English, and entwine it all together to get the point across. I guess my Japanese doesn't help me out much here. I wish I could "immerse" in the culture here more, because our family rarely goes out, though it's good enough just to spend tea time with them. Waking up to the African sun and bathing with buckets is so much more than I ever thought it could be. I'm really excited for excursion, and I love singing Rianna songs with our host brother, Abdullah.

 

Moroccan Idol FTW

Experiencing a new culture is the most valuable thing in your life.

I'm glad that you are enjoying every single moment in there.

Can't wait to learn Rianna songs from you.

Take a lots of pictures or video taping so we can learn as well when you come back from your learning experience in Morocco.

Have a wonderful excursion with your travel friends.

Stay healthy all of you.

Love
