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

I thought so too. Tarik seems to be a popular Moroccan name.

TARIQ

Gender: Masculine

Usage: Arabic

Other Scripts: طارق (Arabic)

Means "he who pounds at the door" in Arabic. This is the Arabic name of the morning star. Tariq was the name of the Islamic military leader who conquered Spain

I guess since Morocco is close to Spain... Tarik is a good name to pick?

[ZouhairPatriciaB 0]

Name:Melynda

Where you're from:Seattle, Washington

SO's name:Rida

Where they are from in Morocco:Youssoufia

Anything else you want to add:I visited in December '08 and am going back on July 7th and will be staying until August 12. Rida has his visa, but I think we will be waiting until after Ramadan for him to come here.

Funniest thing I saw in Morocco: It was just before Eid Al Adah. Saw a man riding a motorized bicycle, with someone on the back fender and a sheep turned upside down (hooves up) riding in front of him...all negotiating Marrechi traffic on a little motorized BICYCLE...only in Morocco...

Anything else you want to add: I miss him!!! I haven't seen him since April but hopefully soon. I've been to Morocco 4 times over the course of a year.
