What Travel in Morocco Was Like in 1989"

----

World traveller Cathy Nesbitt joins Azdean on today's episode with a special story of visiting Morocco way back in 1989.

Cathy and her future husband arrived off the boat in Ceuta, thinking they were already in Morocco, but a crash course in geopolitics and navigation quickly got them to the actual border within a few minutes.

From there, they found themselves in Tetouan, with a local guide, being hussled to a carpet emporium.

Sounds like your classic tourist scam, right?

Cathy shares with us a twist though in the story, and her memories and feelings about the encounter, from over 35 years later.

Fortunately for her, and for us, they continued on into Morocco to visit many familiar sites that were only just starting to show signs of tourism fame. It was a different time to travel, without technology and easy translation, credit cards and bank machines, or the kind of transport and comforts that we are used to now.

And yet it was a trip that left many indellible memories, which she shares with us today. Azdean, in turn, talks about how places like Marrakech, Chefchaouen and Casablanca have changed since Cathy visited: in some ways a lot, in others, Morocco remains timeless.

Cathy is a yoga teacher who offers free online yoga sessions every Tuesday morning, you can check her out here:
