5 things about Tangier with Wak Wak Studio

and little bit more…
I asked Sarah Charpentier Riani – the creative force behind  Wak Wak Studio  – to list her Five Favourite Things in Tangier.
 Il y a tellement de choses que j’aime à Tanger… ce fut donc difficile de n’en choisir que 5 ! Je vis dans cette ville depuis maintenant un peu plus de 3 ans, et chaque jour je découvre de nouvelles choses, de nouveaux endroits…Une atmosphère particulière qui ne laisse personne indifférent. Voici donc ma petite liste, sans ordre de préférence, des 5 choses que j’aime à Tanger :
There are so many things that I like about Tangier . . . it was hard to choose only 5! I have been living in this city for just over 3 years now, and every day I discover new things, new places –  it has an atmosphere that leaves no one indifferent. So – here is my list, without order of preference, of  5 things I like about Tangier:
1) UNE BISSARA! Une plat tellement simple mais tellement bon…Une sorte de purée de pois cassés ou de fèves, agrémentée d’un filet d’huile d’olive du pays, du cumin et du paprika. Et c’est encore meilleur avec quelques petits morceaux d’oignons crus…Et qui dit Bissara, dit forêt de Perdicaris, un des meilleurs endroits pour en déguster une!
 
1) A BISSARA! A dish so simple but so good . . . it is a sort of pureed pea or bean soup, embellished with a dash of olive oil, cumin and paprika. And it’s even better with a few small pieces of raw onions! And whoever says Bissara, also says Perdicaris Forest, one of the best places to enjoy it!
2) LA FORET DE PERDICARIS Sur les hauteurs de Tanger, c’est une forêt communale en plein milieu urbain. J’aime m’y promener en famille et admirer la richesse de sa biodiversité. On peut également y voir une mystérieuse villa aux airs de manoir (laissée très longtemps à l’abandon mais actuellement en pleine rénovation) dont le propriétaire était Ion Perdicaris, riche américain.
 

2 ) THE FOREST PERDICARIS On the heights of Tangier, it is a communal forest in an urban setting . I love to walk there with my family and admire its rich biodiversity. One can also see a mysterious manor house (very long left abandoned but currently being renovated) whose original owner was Ion Perdicaris, a wealthy American.

Et rien n’est plus agréable que de se balader sur la chaussée romaine et profiter d’une splendide vue sur la mer. 

And nothing is more pleasant than to walk on the old Roman road and enjoy the splendid sea view.

3) LA KASBAH C’est un de mes quartiers préférés à Tanger. Situé sur les hauteurs de la vieille médina, c’est un lieu chargé d’histoire. J’aime siroter un thé à la Menthe place du Tabor à l’ombre d’un ficus centenaire et profiter de l’ambiance apaisante…
3) THE KASBAH This is one of my favorite neighborhoods in Tangier. Located on the heights of the old medina, this is a place full of history. I like to sip a mint tea at the place of Tabor in the shade of a century-old ficus and enjoy the soothing ambience …
4) LAS CHICAS
La boutique LAS CHICAS est l’endroit incontournable du shopping à Tanger. Installée dans une ancienne maison rénovée avec goût, j’aime y découvrir les dernières nouveautés des designers locaux, papoter avec les charmantes propriétaires Ayda et Yasmine et faire une petite pause déjeuner sur la terrasse entre copines.
dans une ancienne maison rénovée avec goût, j’aime y découvrir les dernières nouveautés des

4) LAS CHICAS The shop Las Chicas is the place to shop in Tangier. Housed in an old house renovated with taste, I like to discover the latest local designers there, chatting with the charming owners Ayda and Yasmine while taking a lunchbreak on the terrace among friends.
5) LA CINEMATHEQUE
Pour le moment, c’est l’unique cinéma à Tanger. Conservé dans son jus, j’aime
l’ambiance complètement vintage de ce lieu qui propose une belle programmation pour les
enfants, des nouveautés et des films d’auteur. Ici pas de pop corn, c’est plutôt ambiance thé à
la menthe et patisseries faites maison.
Entrée 20 Dirhams, imbattable !
5) THE CINEMATHEQUE For now,it is the only cinema in Tangier. Kept in its own original aesthetic, I love the completely vintage atmosphere of this place, which also offers a great programme for children, novelties and art films . Here there is no popcorn, but plenty of atmosphere, mint tea and homemade pastries. Entry 20 Dirhams, unbeatable!

Parce-que faire une liste de mes 5 choses préférées à Tanger est vraiment trop difficile, et parce-que ce n’est plus vraiment Tanger, je me permets d’ajouter un sixième lieu ! 6) PLAGE HERMES Après Assilah, sur la route de Larache, se trouve la plage de Sidi Mghait. Appelée aussi Plage Hermès (dû à la présence de la maison du célèbre créateur français), cette plage est assez difficile d’accès. Bien qu’aménagée de transats et de petits Chiringuitos , cette plage reste sauvage et tranquille. J’aime y un faire un bain d’argile et déguster un bon tajine de poisson face à la mer. Du pur bonheur.
Because making a list of my five favorite things to Tangier is really too difficult, and because – it’s not really Tanger , I might add a sixth place! 6)PLAGE HERMES – Just after Assilah, on the road to Larache, is the beach of Sidi Mghait.This beach is also called Hermes(due to the presence of the house of the famous French designer, this beach is difficult to access. Although there are some deckchairs and small Chiringuitos in the summer, this beach remains wild and tranquil. I like to make a clay bath and enjoy a good fish tagine facing the sea . Pure happiness.
So . . . a few ideas for next time you find yourself in Tangiers?

My list of things to do when I can get back to Mor
My list of things to do when I can get back to Morocco is growing...old favourites to revisit along with new ones to discover. I certainly won't be taking that 4 hour flight for granted again!!
A long leisurely lunch at @berbari_maison is pretty high up on my list - a lovely countryside chambre d'hote just outside of Assilah where you can phone in advance to book lunch. #postponedontcancel #Assilah #teaintangier #asilah #morocco #tangier #tanger #northernmorocco

X marks the spot. . .
I was recently asked to look for some vintage Moroccan fabrics and this led me down a bit of an embroidery rabbit hole - so many beautiful vintage pieces with so much perfectly formed, handstitched detail. DM me for more information about this or other vintage pieces#madeinmorocco #vintagetextiles #embroidery  #craft #fez #interiorinspirations #moroccanstyle

This time last year...we were planting 40 baby Bougainville plants to create a colourful border to our little olive grove in the Moroccan countryside - fingers crossed they are flourishing and waiting for us to return!

And the joy of giving yourself fresh new white walls means a new space to put those familiar images and items and bring a little of your own history into a new space - with my favourite @dar_fatyme cushion in pride of place along with beads and prints from South Africa and woven throw from the north - the question is....how long will I be able to avoid the temptation of adding colour?? I already have some ideas bubbling under the surface!! #decoratinginblackandwhite

The end of 2020 involved a move up a mountain (literally and figuratively) so as we start the year with fingers crossed and looking forward to be able to get back to our place in the sun in Assilah we are also working  out a restructuring of our lives that will allow for flexibility and change in 2021 - here's hoping....so from my corner on a Welsh mountainside to yours, best wishes for 2021 x
