"In 7 years and 17 trips, I spent almost a year in Morocco, in all seasons, for Royal Air Maroc. Not only did the cumbersome folklore quickly peel itself away, but I was able to return to the same places several times. The more I enchantingly 'Moroccanized' myself, the closer I got to the roots of beauty, mystery, seduction and human warmth. I always think of Fez, which swallows you up, cradles you and protects you."
