ABOUT

A thorough, overly-wordy recount of my life abroad in Rabat, Morocco, for the 2019-2020 academic year. 

I was fortunate enough to receive a full scholarship from the US Department of State, through YES Abroad, that allows me to live with a host family in Morocco, study at a local high school (where the classes will be taught in French), and also attend a highly prestigious language institute called Amideast, where I will be studying Darija (the Moroccan dialect of Arabic) and Modern Standard Arabic!


Along the way, I hope to learn about Islam as well as other major aspects of Northern African society, make friends, join a local gym/sports team, and enjoy Moroccan cuisine.

I do not plan on purchasing data for my phone because I want to be IN Morocco, when I'm in Morocco, but you can contact me by email or Whatsapp if you wish! I have also terminated my veganism so I can try common Moroccan dishes including those containing goat and sheep (Sorry Clover and Bo).


That's all, folks! Let me know if you have any questions, and 'arak lahqa!

-Madeleine
