Telling a good story is all about how well you deliver it. I assure you, I do not deliver. But keep reading regardless because it’s about me humiliating myself which is always a treat. I went to India about seven years ago which is as long as it has taken me to get over this

There are many different options when booking accommodation. I am now ole Miss Fancy Pants (when I decide to put on pants) so I prefer to stay in a hotel. Don’t hate. Apart from Couch Surfing, I have pretty much stayed in every possible type of lodging. I have slept in multiple airports, overnight trains,

Morocco is Opposite Land to me. You think it was cheap but it was expensive. You think they speak Arabic but randomly it’s French too. You think their mint tea is going to be the best but it’s gross flavoured with tones of sugar. You think it is spelt Morroco but it’s Morocco. Like I said, Opposite
