🇲🇦 Rabat - Europe's Backyard Living Up to Its Name 🌿

Arrived in Morocco's capital at 10AM 🚉 Took an Indrive (smart move - farther from station!) Young driver spoke decent English 🗣️ When asked if Muslim: "Yes, but I don't pray 🕌 We can have 4 wives legally, but nah - seems unnecessary" 😅 Checked into a charming old town guesthouse 🏡 Family lives upstairs Lucky me - got 4-bed dorm ALL TO MYSELF! 🎉 (Pics at end ➡️) After days of chicken tagine/tacos overload 🍗 Found "We Salad" on Google - PERFECT detox! 🥗 Owner played awesome tunes 🎶 Told him: "Your playlist makes this salad perfect!" Sat by window sipping fresh juice 🧃 Watching Moroccan students stroll by - pure bliss 😌 Afternoon at Andalusian Garden 🌸 FREE ENTRY + breathtaking! No wonder they call Morocco "Europe's garden" 🌍 Café with ocean views 🌊 Cats strolling ancient walls Sunlight dancing on my face ☀️ Could've stayed forever 💫 Passed mosques 🕌 Saw elderly man slowly remove shoes 👟 Painstakingly arranging them in corner Hunched back entering to pray - deeply moving Rabat's beauty lies in its contrasts: Chaotic old town streets 🚗💨 vs. serene seaside calm 🌊 Horns blaring 📯 vs. waves whispering Took 2.5dhm boat ride ⛴️ Crossed river to another city in minutes! Fun fact: Saw ZERO Asian tourists all day How's this gem not flooded with visitors? 🤔 #GlobeTrotting #Morocco #VisitMorocco #Rabat #RabatOldTown#ReadingTheWorldOnePageAtATime
