Uncovered film from Morocco 2011

It's been over a year since I left behind this place. Today I found a roll of used film in the back of my desk, had it developed and to my surprise was given back these photos.

I left a part of my heart in the middle of the Desert.

Nohayla & Fatima

When I was in Tighza there was a family who we all grew close to. One night after dinner we all started drawing and exchanging artwork. Needless to say, I'm keeping these drawings for the rest of my life!

Adventure to Morocco

This winter I will be taking The Art and Architecture of Morocco Course.

I'm looking forward to this for many reasons.
I've been out of school for about six months and now I'll be able to take part in an art history course with some of my good friends, while visiting different cities in Morocco!

On December 27th I will be departing Boston to Paris and then to Casablanca, where the trip begins.


We will be studying textiles, decorative arts as well as painting and sculpture. The course examines the mixture of African and Islamic influences in desert Kasbahs, Mosques, Palaces and Gardens of the imperial city of Marrakesh.

4 days in Marrakesh
2 days in Telouet
2 days in Anemiter
2 days in Agdz
1 day in M'hamid
3 days in the Sahara Desert
1 final day in Marrakesh
1 final day in Casablanca
