A Moroccan Itinerary

A Post-Lockdown Travel Wish-List!

I havent been doing much other than yoga and baking the odd loaf of bread lately as I felt like the {moroccan} carpet had been pulled out from under my feet. But this week I have decided to re-focus and re-energise, and with that in mind I thought a little travel inspiration would be in order.

Our time in Morocco is generally spent in and around Assilah and Tangier, but there are so many places we have yet to visit and I can’t wait for the time when we can do that. I think when that time does eventually come around, I will grab hold of it with both hands and savour every moment!

To inspire my Moroccan Wish List I have been reading about some of the places visited by Rasa , who is the person behind the blog “Blondie in Morocco”

Here are some of her recommendations. I have included links to the posts for more information.

THE ATLAS MOUNTAINS:

I love the Atlas Mountains – we havent spent a lot of time there and I dont know it very well, but it is definitly an area I would like to explore a lot more. Spending a day in a village and discovering places a little off the beaten track appeals to me  – this Day Trip to a Berber Home  is a perfect addition to your Marrakech itinerary if you want to spend a day beyond the medina.

This time last year ( it feels like 100 years ago) we did just that and drove out from Marrakech to Imlil where we stayed at the lovely Douar Samra

There is a lot of talk about how this pandemic is going to change how we live, and how we travel. I think the one positive thing that could come out is a more mindful attitude to travel – sounds a little cliched I know, but if travel is  about supporting small businesses, individuals and communities and not just about airlines and hotels, then it can have a positive impact on more peoples lives.

MOVING NORTH with Rasa, and her  recommendation to go Chasing Flamingos in Morocco: Moulay Bousselham, despite being relatively close for us as it is only about 80 km from Assilah, is a place I have never been to, and  the thought of puttering about in a boat with binoculars and birdbook in hand is actually quite appealing right now!

(birdwatching? . . . yikes, I must be getting old!!)

 

Finally heading towards the Middle Atlas, the village of Bhalil looks fascinating. In this post on  Blondie in Morocco you can read about her visit to the to the cave houses of Bhalil, a journey of discovery that is definitly off the more well-trodden tourist paths of the area.

Images like this make me want to pack my bags and head for the hills . . .

 

hopefully sometime soon!

#assilah #asilah #ahouseinassilah

Good morning from Assilah – before I head out for
Good morning from Assilah - before I head out for a strong coffee and start thinking about all things lighting, plumbing and fabrics, I thought it was time to show my face and share a little about what keeps me busy when I'm not bashing away at my laptop...Very much still a work-in-progress but slowly the ideas are becoming reality as the re-imagining of this lovely property takes shape. The first step in "going public" is our Instagram page @dar_ambrosia PLEASE follow the progress there - not much too see (yet)but there is a playlist of a few of the songs that fuel the process😊 - in the meantime DM me for any questions about the space/accommodation/house rental /retreats...see you over  at @dar_ambrosia !! But first coffee...

I can honestly say I think of my mum most days but today is her birthday so the thoughts and memories are a little more poignant - there are still moments when I want to reach for the phone and have a conversation knowing I will get - most of the time - her unquestioning support xx
