Dear members,I am an American who has always been intrigued by Morocco. Finally my dream has come true and I will be visiting your country with my husband in a few months.I hope that my message is not inappropriate to this board. I am a writer by profession and wish to be able to share what we experience in Morocco with other Americans. But that means, of course, that we really "experience" Morocco rather than have a "good vacation."I want to understand your culture, what makes people tick. I have been reading about Islam, and now have some insight into your beautiful religion. I have also been studying Arabic (but failed miserably) and hope that our bad Spanish and French can help us communicate with Moroccans.Have any of you any advice about where we should go beyond the touristy stuff? Is the anti-American sentiment strong because of this awful war?I pray that this trip will be the first step that will allow me to form a bridge between our two cultures, even if it is just educating the children at my children's school about your culture.If this is not an appropriate topic for this message board, my apologies. If anyone has time and inclination, they could respond to me directly at barbarajustus@gmail.com.My sincere thanks,Barbara //en.yabiladi.com/topics/advice-please-44-597360-597360.html#msg-597360 Thu, 04 Jun 2026 12:47:25 +0200 Phorum 5.2.15
