I thought it was an interesting topic, so I thought I'd post our converstation here.Question: Do you know how hard they enforce the laws about co-habitation, my fiancee has told me that he could go to jail for that I am a freaking out about it.

Review: Hotel Rembrandt
From 760 Days in Morocco, 5 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles
By the time I was able to book hotels for our trip, there were few left with available rooms. Hotel Rembrandt had mixed reviews online, but the bad ones were from those kind of people who like luxury cookie cutter hotels, and not charm in their hotels. Well, that's what I gather by their complaints anyway. I did have to book our rooms at Hotel Rembandt by one of the third-party booking websites, because the hotel's website is in French and has an online request system, but it's the type where...

Today's word is f'mtini ("Do you understand me'"). It's used the same way as when we say, "Do you know what I mean'" at the end of a sentence.

Today I'm packing up the blog and moving to the Wordpress blog neighborhood. Due to some issues with Blogger, I think Wordpress is going to offer me more of what I need to really make this blog as great as it can be. I hope this doesn't cause a terrible inconvenience for all my faithful readers & subscribers, but the new website is almost exactly the same: http://760days.wordpress.com. Of course, it may take a day or two to pack up all the posts and comments, move them to the new place and...

Sorry for the mistakes.My question, to any residents of Morocco who are reading this blog:Do you have cockroaches this summer' We have't seen a single one in our flat, not that I'm complaining. There weren't any at our...

There are a few places in Rabat, Casablanca, and other major cities where books in English are sold. The large bookstore across from the Parliament (I'll post the name soon) has English novels that aren't too badly priced, but the selection is small. Most book stores that carry English books are either for learning the language or the very old classics, which are worthy of reading. But, when you want a good ol' American novel, the classics just won't do. Some of the English language centers...
