When Alice Morrison headed out to Morocco, it was to take on one of the most daunting challenges: to run in the famous Marathon des Sables. Little did she expect to end up living there. But once she settled in a flat in Marrakech, she was won over by the people, the spectacular scenery and the ancient alleyways of the souks. Soon she was hiking over the Atlas mountains, joining nomads to sample their timeless way of life as they crossed the Sahara desert, and finding peace in a tranquil oasis.
Despite more than 10 million tourists coming to Morocco each year, there are remarkably few books about its people, their customs and the extraordinary range of places to visit, from bustling markets to vast, empty deserts. Alice makes sure she samples it all, and as she does she provides a stunning portrait of a beautiful country. As a lone woman, she often attracts plenty of curiosity, but her willingness to participate - whether thigh deep in pigeon droppings in a tannery or helping out herding goats - ensures that she is welcomed everywhere by a people who are among the most hospitable on the planet.
Alice came to fame with her BBC2 series Morocco to Timbuktu, and now she joins the ranks of great travel writers who can bring a country vividly to life and instantly transport the reader to a sunnier place. If you're thinking of going to Morocco, or you want to recall your time there, Adventures in Morocco is the ideal audiobook.©2022 Alice Morisson (P)2022 W. F. Howes Ltd

It was sheer joy to listen to, my heart nearly leapt out of my chest on several occasions when she related certain instances when heaven seemed to touch earth with Moroccan magic.
Alice could hardly contain herself as she related her adventures and the deeeeep friendships she forged with the native men women and children of Morocco.
I’ve been visiting Morocco for years so an familiar with the geography and the culture, but Alice has given me some insights into how to charm these charming people in order for them to bring the best out of myself and open my cold Northern heart to their warm Southern hearts.
