Abdesslam is awesome!

Needing an escape from Fes, I decided on a day trip to Sefrou for Tuesday. As I mentioned previously, I befriended the proprietor of an Internet café there who turned out to be a wonderful, kind, sweet gentleman named Abdesslam. We struck up a conversation and before I knew it I was getting a free, first class tour of the province with my own personal guide!

Sefrou is absolutely beautiful and there is no way I would have seen everything I saw without Abdesslam. He drove me around for hours, showed me some of the most fantastic views, treated me to a delicious meal, introduced me to lots of people in Sefrou (including the mayor) and insisted on driving me all the way back to my hotel in Fes.

It was such a surprising and relaxing day – a much needed respite from the crazy streets of Fes. Abdesslam is awesome!!!
