#marrakesh — Public Fediverse posts

Morocco is a beautiful country, but the people can be a bit exhausting. The Berbers in the mountains are wonderful, but in the cities it’s different - you constantly have to count your change because they give you less or “forget” to give it back 😅. There are lots of scammers, and when taking a taxi you have to agree on the price beforehand or ask them to turn on the meter - they won’t do it on their own. It really wears me out. I’ll come back here one day, but only for the nature.

I have to admit though, my hosts at the riad were really great. The first thing they told me when I arrived was what to watch out for 😄 They kept warning me about phone thieves on scooters and advised me not to take out my phone too often.

It’s my first solo country in Africa, and I have to say - the first experience wasn’t the best 😅 But Africa isn’t a country, it’s a continent, and I’m sure there’s still a lot of good waiting for me here ❤️
