Intro

Location: Marrakech, Morocco
An adventure searching for the perfect derelict Riad, through the constuction itself, to the end result (insha'Allah!)

Marrakech by Moped

I've not posted in a while as I've been too busy working.  Fortunately work is very busy at the moment, so that's got to be the priority for now.  However, we are missing Marrakech sooo much, its painful!

I was cutting some hedges in the Square this weekend as part of a community clean up day and the smell of two stroke from the hedge cutters took me right back to Marrakech.  Especially the last trip when I got a ride with our lovely friend Younes on the back of his moped from his shop on Rue Riad Zitoun el Jdid back to Riad Laksiba at the southern end of the Kasbah. The video's below are not mine, but you get the idea.  The first is quite fun and the second, although long does start at Cafe de France and feature Rue Riad Zitoun el Jdid and Rue Douar Graoua, the route to Riad Romm'an.

  1. After riding on the back of a motorbike in Gueliz in the traffic, I really appreciated your driver taking it a little easy in the medina. Thanks for posting the videos, they remind me of all I miss about Marrakech.
