Blog Post 2: Now that's visual.....

Hey Liz! You have less than a month until you’ll be in Morocco!!!

……….


Really?

……..


So, I have less than a month until I’ll be in Morocco.


Or, for you visual people, this here place:



On this here continent:



Holy Cheese! Cue the panic button.


Before I continue, I must pause this post for a little musical interlude. You should have seen this coming. If I didn’t post it, it would be some sort of crime. Seriously, this music video is frickin’ awesome! Africa!





Toto! Stop seducing me by lounging on that stack of books……..


I hope you’re still with me.


So, Morocco. Everything is almost in order in Missoula for me to travel. My apartment is packed and cleaned (well, I’m supposed to be cleaning it right now…). All of my stuff is at my parent’s house (Thanks Mom and Dad!!!) and I’ve been vaccinated! I have some Moroccan Cash (Dirhams). All that’s left is for me to do is to relax and pack my suitcase! I’ve already packed most of my winter clothes and some dictionaries….I’m sure you’re very interested in the specifics…very exciting post here….




I bless the raaaaaiiinssss down in Afffriiccaaaaa.




In other news, I’ve registered for classes at Al Akhawayn, so far I’m taking; “Women in Economic Development”, “International Development in the Middle East and North Africa” and “Sex, Gender and Power”. I’ll try not to come back a raging feminist or anything like that. Oh, also I have to take a language assessment to determine which Arabic class I should take. Originally, I was debating whether or not I should take more classes, then I remembered, I’ll be in a whole different country and on an entirely different continent…. for that matter. Weird. I hope I get to see a camel.

  1. Yay Liz I love the blog. How are you packing? Traditional folding or are you one of those people that believes that you get more room in a suitcase if you roll everything??? I want to see pictures of you riding a camel! That would be something crazy to imagine. Good luck with the packing! Remember to breathe!
