    What I love about Morocco is that there is still a lot of freedom and laissez faire for the people to have small businesses, shops, and it seems like there is not too many rules, regulations. There is a certain natural way of life where you accept certain risks (like living on cliff sides) but you are rewarded in other ways. There is not too much bureaucracy regarding local sites where you can still go the closest you want to see, meet with the people. It's not completely unauthentic or procedurial like in other touristic places. Building codes in areas like Merzouga, what is that? And local council harassing you because you built two terrasses or have a pool? They could not imagine that. I feel like you can truly build a dream home there. I am happy for them. May Morocco remain friendly and encouraging to its people to be creative, artistic, to design freely beautiful spaces, to have shops and businesses accessible for all without any taxes. As you see many street sellers only deal with cash, they bring in local crafts, local foods, etc. Morocco is a place where you have 0.10cent bread, no one is ever starving by lack of work, and the community is strong, and people are still free and encouraged to work and create. What I would advise them is to keep focusing on their environmental challenges and becoming efficient at preserving their resources like water because although it seems they live in modest prosperity (having food, shelter), there are challenges like droughts and irrigation. Keep using traditional materials and do not allow too much plastic use or pollution in nature. Do like your ancestors and have everything made from stone, earth, wood, glass, metal. That is the best advice I can give them as someone from abroad.

      Well said. It would be great if we could take a page from Morocco's book. The strong sense of community and family there is inspiring, and the people are proud of their country and seem genuinely happy.

    The Tinghir town was beautiful with greenery and gorges. More than anything else, people were kind and hospitable. Hope to revisit soon.

      I wish that we had stopped longer in the town. We totally agree, the people are very kind and hospitable.

    Nice video! Fascinating area. We especially liked your explanation of the well system. The gorge was also beautiful. We probably won’t have time to leave Marrakesh when we visit Morocco next month. Great job!
