Part of our bridge got washed out during the recent storms that we were having so now we have to climb over these rocks to get to the other parts of town. (thats my sitemate by the way)
My town. Isn't it pretty?
This is how people in my town get wood for our fornus. People that live on the other side of the mountain bring wood on horses or donkeys. They walk about 2-3hrs to get to our town and then walk back. Sometimes they make various trips in a day, especially when the weather is nice and sunny.

My fornu! This is a little wood burning stove that has pipes going out through my roof. I make fires in it to keep my room warm. If it wasn't for this amazing stove, I think I would freeze :/
I went to a craft fair with the women of the weaving cooperative that we have in town. I helped them set up this zween tent. Isn't it pretty. They make this kind of stuff everyday. Its incredible how dedicated the women are to their work, especially now that its freezing cold in the building in which they work.
This is one of the nearest large towns from where I live. This is a view of Azrou and its beautiful mosque as seen from the roof of one of the city's hotels.
In the Fes medina. These guys bang on these pots until they shape them perfectly. The sounds of their work just fit in perfectly with the atmosphere of the rest of the medina.
