Today, I have an hour break from my courses. So I’m going to sit and learn through people behavior and manners. In front of me, there are two girls sitting on a bench. The one wearing a long black skirt was talking, whereas the other one with a blue t-shirt was laughing out loud. I’m wondering what is the funny thing? On my left, I can see a little boy chasing a little bird. The bird is flying from a place to other and the boy is still running behind it. They are near the water sprinklers now. The bird flies away and the little kid run away. He didn’t want to make his clothes wet. A little cat is coming by my side; he is trying to play with me obviously. I’m going to take him between my hands, but unfortunately I have to go and have my lesson. Actually, this hour that I have spent watching people taught me the real happiness.
The following posts are glimpses of life on, around and far from the Al Akhawayn University campus in Ifrane, Morocco.

An hour in the Campus
Today, I have an hour break from my courses. So I’m going to sit and learn through people behavior and manners. In front of me, there are two girls sitting on a bench. The one wearing a long black skirt was talking, whereas the other one with a blue t-shirt was laughing out loud. I’m wondering what is the funny thing? On my left, I can see a little boy chasing a little bird. The bird is flying from a place to other and the boy is still running behind it. They are near the water sprinklers now. The bird flies away and the little kid run away. He didn’t want to make his clothes wet. A little cat is coming by my side; he is trying to play with me obviously. I’m going to take him between my hands, but unfortunately I have to go and have my lesson. Actually, this hour that I have spent watching people taught me the real happiness.
Moroccan north beach
I’m sitting on the beach, in front of the beautiful sea in the north of
Morocco. the sky is blue, the weather is perfect, there is nothing better than
to relax in this quit and peaceful beach. I can see children playing, some of
them are building beautiful sand castles, others are playing football or tennis. I can also see a man and
his wife playing tennis, they seem very good players. In front of me there is a
beautiful girl sun tanning her white skin. In the sea there is a young man
playing with his jet-water and flying like a superman, it is so cool. I can see
also some boys racing in the water with there jetski. Here everybody is having
fun, and me I’m thinking about my classroom tomorrow. It’s time for me to go
for a ride in my jetski and have some fun.
A sunny day in a garden!
What a great day it is to
relax in a green area! I am in a garden, sitting in a wood bench, breathing
fresh air, and enjoying this wonderful sunny day. A lot of people are here. In
front of me, a man with a long coat is reading a newspaper. On my right, a
gardener is watering some gorgeous flowers. On my left, there is two kids who
are fighting for a slide; I think that I have to separate them, yet I am too
lazy to do that! Behind me, I can hear two girls talking about boys; I was
really shocked by what I heard. A security agent is walking around seeking if
there is any trouble. I think that he didn’t mention the two kids’ fight!
What about this weekend?
It’s the weekend, I will go out with my friends, and I feel
hungry, that’s why I go out to search for something to eat. It’s raining. Beside of
AUI, there is some great green area, where people have a good time. Also, there
is a wonderful sculpture of a lion. In this place I observe some people taking
pictures, others are just relaxing… I keep walking on the street of this
attractive city, everything here is good: the streets are admirables and clean,
the buildings are stylish and people are agreeable and friendly. At the
restaurant, I find that the food here isn’t much different than the one in
Agadir, but the way that they present it is different. There is a lot of people
in the place, families, young student… Everyone is doing something different,
some are reading book, others are eating and discussing… The person who
servers me is so nice and smiling. The
life in Ifrane is too much different than Agadir, but I have to accustom this
new life, because I’ll past all my studies here.
My trip to Akchour
This
is my first trip with Explorer's
Club to Akchour passing by Chefchaouen city. I'm here, admiring the
beauty of
this small village with my friend. The sun is shining, the birds are
singing
and the monkeys are climbing the mountains. We are all wearing big
backpacks
and baskets and we are all of us excited to attend the waterfall of
Akchour
after hiking for three hours. We have just arrived next to a wonderful
river. The sky is blue; the water is very cold but the weather is
warming up. Some of
my friends are eating; others are swimming, and I'm just enjoying my
time by taking
some pictures. I'm amazed by the different and wonderful views. Finally
we
arrive to the waterfall, every one seems to be very happy. It's just
magnificent!
The men and the cat
There are two men walking on the street.
One of them is talking on the phone, perhaps with his girlfriend. He looks
very happy. The other one brushes his teeth
and is carrying a small mirror on his hand. I also see a cat eating sardines in
a restaurant. Of course it isn't sitting in
a chair but it comes next to the people who is in the restaurant and eats with
them.
That's really wonderful!
The café's window
I’m drinking a coffee downtown, sitting next to a window and watching
what is happening in the streets. There is a man talking in the cell phone, he seems to have a
very serious conversation. Also in front of the store, is a young lady with her
boyfriend laughing out loud, meanwhile she observes him thoroughly. It’s a sunny
day, the birds are flying high in the sky, and the wind is blowing. I can see
in a building in my left that the boss is yelling at his employees, they are
apologizing for their mistakes and promising him to do better next time. In the
bakery, there is a woman buying some bread, she likes the taste of it so she is
complimenting the baker and explaining why she admires it. Near the crossroads, a
little cat is eating some leftovers. It looks at the pedestrians, afraid of
them. In the café, next to me, a group of boys are talking about their future
plans, dreaming of the holidays and imagining the place where they’re traveling
to.
