STORY DISPATCH#04

What happens on this route?

Morocco welcomes water-loving Cappy with two coasts, then promptly swallows his map in a souk. He shares tajine and carefully poured mint tea, helps a fallen goat, watches desert colours change, meets protected macaques, joins a football crowd, and wanders through an old Fes doorway. Each host turns confusion into hospitality, showing him that the long route can connect food, wildlife, sport, landscape, and centuries of learning.

Tbourida is a Moroccan equestrian performance whose tradition dates to the sixteenth century.
