Anything else you want to add: we have a sweet 8 yr old boy called oliver, and a pretty little princess named ayah, who is 10 months

Have you been to Morocco: i have, 3 times. it's alright. not my favorite place i've ever been, but not my least favorite either. my husband isn't interested in moving back either, he's not all that sentimental about it. he's more into the idea of buying land in the us in the middle of nowhere and taking care of our own baby goats and cows and horses and having a bunch of big, fluffy dogs running around the place. that kind of thing. i like that idea too.

Wow I wish we could go back to Morocco soon. Money is a big issue for us now. I know it's hard for Tarik now to be away from his family and I'd love to go back just for a while

I can't ever find tickets for anything less than $1500!

Salaam,

try booking buddy or kayak.com they are not direct flights but if you would like to save a good 700$ i would start looking here

Where they are from in Morocco: Safi

How long he has been here: 3 months

Anything else you want to add: life is settling in, i think the first few weeks were the worst, he starts his new job monday so maybe life can get back to somekind of normal now.

I visited Morocco twice enjoyed but doubting i will want to live there forever, but who knows, with all the stresses and things here sometimes it sounds like a good idea to get a house on the water and enjoy life more

I agree! There is a part of me that would love to live in Morocco.

Take the Taxi to the market to buy some spices

Decorate my own home

Teach at the American School

Go to Ain Diab at night and sit on the beach

It just seems slower and more stressless there

How many of us are going to move back to Morocco? and where?

Yes, Rabat

My husband thought he wanted to until he had lived here for 3 years and then went back to see his family and help his sister take care of some business. He got so aggravated trying to deal with people who want wouldn't take care of business without a bribe and trying to drive where no one really follows the road laws, that he called me from there to tell me we are never moving back to Morocco. Once he came home he was ready to buy a house, get his citizenship and forget about living in Morocco. We will visit but not stay.

I used to not like Fez very much but with all the change in the last couple years, it's becoming much nicer I'm anxious to see how the subway in Rabat will turn out lol...It was chaos when I went last

[Sandrila 1]

WOW!! Alot of new faces on here

SALAM...WELCOME

I see a few women on here with SOs name Tarik....is it really all that popular? I thought Mohamed (spelled a variety of ways) was

[Sandrila 1]

I visited Morocco 4x between Sept 2006 until March 2008.

I really did enjoy my time there alot and wish we had the opportunity for a good life there.

I would LOVE to live there. I have 3 children here and until they are older, I couldn't have any peace leaving them behind.

Tarik is from Rabat and he lives near the sea, which I love!!!!!!!!

I think in the future there would be a chance for us....maybe like 10 years from now.

Hubby has been here 5 1/2 months and I want to add that there is a rough patch when they first arrive.

At least I have experienced that and have seen others post the same comments.

It is getting better. If they come with a greencard and work right away, things straighten out pretty quickly.

We plan to visit Morocco together in May of 2010.

I hope we are able to pull it together and have some good money to travel.

I have been to Fez, Casa, Marrakech and Sale. I still have alot more places I need to see.

It isn't very financially feasible trying to be 2 places. I just thank god we are able to live here and have a good life

and not have to worry about always finding the resources to get a plane ticket and spending money to visit him.

I love to travel, but not being ABLE to see each other for months upon months at a time puts too much pressure

to buy the first plane ticket outta here.
