I simply can't take it anymore, I NEED a holiday, so this week I booked a cheeky week in Morocco. Three nights in Marrakech, 4 nights by the coast in Essaouira.
Some twitter friends helped me finally make a decision with tales of their own great experiences in Morocco. Sometimes you gotta just love twitter.
It goes without saying, I am now obsessing over blogs inspired by Marrakech, looking for the best places to go and see and also looking for some inspiration for my holiday wardrobe.
I plan on making like Jade Jagger, kaftaning it up and accessorising for a bit of glam. Hippy chic is what I like to call it ;)
Hopefully I will get the best of both worlds by staying in a Riad in the centre of the Medina in Marrakech before moving on to somewhere more plush by the sea in Essaouira. I have longed to visit Morocco since I was a teenager so this is a bit of a dream trip for me, not sure why I left it quite so long.
I would love to hear from anyone who has been, where you recommend going, seeing, doing etc ... I have quite a few ideas but I don't want to miss a thing!!
I look forward to well and truly rocking the kasbah ... can't come quick enough!

ReplyDeleteMarrakech is FABULOUS, we only went to Essaouira for two days, one night but would defintely go back.
If you get a private taxi from Marrakech to Essaouira, you can go play in the Atlas Mountains for a bit too on the way.
