Within this colourful Moroccan group, web cafes and cellphones coexist with a maze of donkey-trod alleyways, thousand-12 months-Vintage sewer techniques, and Arab-taste homes, beautiful with difficult, if steadily shabby, mosaic paintings.

So starts a exceptional adventure that may be bewildering, every now and then hilarious, and in the long run immensely worthwhile.

Whilst the riad is after all back to its former glory, Suzanna reveals she has now not simply restored an Vintage Area, but additionally her soul.
