You have heard it and I truly believe it – the best advertisement is word of mouth. And something more to add to that – when you have repeat guests who want to travel with you again! I had the joy of journeying with Jayantha (and his lovely wife Shyamala) last year on...

Nothing could have prepared me for what I saw when we entered Riad Salam in Fes. As we walked down the narrow streets of the medina, the exteriors, as per Moroccan custom, were plain, with no indication of what was inside. Once in a while a nice door, but for the most part,...

 At Hassan II Mosque in Casablanca, Morocco I do most of my travels alone. Whether it is to remote places in the Philippines, to trapsing across the globe to places like Turkey, Morocco, Italy, London, and so on, there are certain things I consciously do to make sure i’m safe as...

One of the hotels we stayed in while in Morocco was in Chefchaouen on the hillside looking towards the old medina. Darechchaouen Maison d’Hotes is an absolutely splendid hotel that oozes with quaintness and character. You can see as you walk into the Reception Lobby the awards...

I was super excited when my birthday not only came before I headed off with my group to Morocco, but that I was also upgraded to a new iPhone 6! YES! Mobile travel photography was going to be taken to a whole new level! 🙂 (All the photos in this post are with it!) I landed in...

One of the most precious things we did when we were in the desert was visit a nomadic village. We took some clothes and school supplies and gave to one family in particular. I watched as this little guy stood, with questions in his eyes and hesitation in his step, probably...

Nothing can prepare you for the Desert. And nothing can prepare you for what the Desert will do to you. I loved my Desert experience. It was far too short. But it made an impact. And one day I will be back again. And it will be just as amazing.
