Moroccan My World

The trek up the largest sand dune I've ever seen! Such an accomplishment haha 
There's nothing like watching the sunset with your best friends atop the tallest dune you can find in the Sahara Desert above a Nomad Camp.
(Thanks Nicole for the camera footage to prove we actually did it! haha Love you! )

Snippets of Morocco!

Morocco!



The most phenomenal people

Running in the Sahara Desert with my roomie Hutch!

Always climbing up


Nothin' like a little meditation & yoga in the middle of the Sahara!


Where we stayed while waiting to ATV and ride camels in the Sahara!









The Nomad Camp we rode camels to 1.5 hours into the desert!

Finally making it to the treehouse after a crazy hike in the dark!
When we were celebrating Hudson and D's 21st birthdays, we were all around the bonfire and started singing The Lion Sleeps Tonight! All of the boys are doing the high parts and it sounded good to us at the time, but it hilarious to look back on how awful it actually sounded!! I love these people. 

The Ghanaian fisherman would sing songs to keep syncopated in their steps/pulls. It was incredible to wake up too!

Blurry, but morning in the treehouse 

The little critters we slept with all night

Sketchy steps, 8 floors down

Canopy Walks!












The Oasis




Slave Dungeons


Female death chamber


Ironically, outside the door of no return was a vibrant celebration of life. There were people swimming in the water, dancing, making fishing nets, talking to each other, and laughing. The whole area was full of life.







Friends on the beach!
