As the lockdown continues this blog continues without the “on Tour” part of its name. Therefore we decided to keep the bi-weekly rhythm for now. Little has significantly changed since the conclusion from our last post. That’s both great as well as disappointing. This post might be a little more philosophical than the past, but hey, we have time...
We spent the last 14 days staying on the campground. No shopping trips, no other big adventures, just daily life in a camper van. Combined with a headache in the first days of week 8 we decided to merge two blog posts into one.
And so it begins… Confinement. We left our secure home to travel, experience new places and meet new people with their own way of living. Whether we make it to South Africa or not was unsure form the beginning, but trying it and exploring this unknown was all the appeal.
This week consisted of fixing our first problem (tires) and then being caught in the global pandemic of COVID-19. We arrived Sunday afternoon in Marrakech and except for supermarkets and hospitals (we’ll come to that later), we have not yet seen much of the city.
This week took us back in time, brought us to the deserts, and tested our skills at tire changing. Crossing Morocco has been a great pleasure and we're not done yet.
