Assilah, Morocco

We had a week to spare after studying in Granada, so decided to head across to Morocco for a week. After a relatively easy bus and ferry journey across the Strait, we arrived in Tangier. The port is about 40min from the city, so we had to jump in an old, beat-up Mercedes taxi with three other passengers and a crazy driver (none of whom spoke much English). We arrived in Tangier and immediately took a train to the small coastal town of Assilah. Luckily we jumped off the train at the right stop (there were no signs at all to designate each station or concrete platform) because Assilah was such a laid-back, cruisy way to begin Morocco.

About Us

We are an Australian couple who love to travel as much as we can. Our first backpacking adventure began in 2007 when we travelled through Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam and southern China for 3 months before settling in Beijing for 6 months to teach English. Beijing proved a great base to earn enough money to continue travelling as Cameron managed to get to South Korea and Japan for 2 months, before we both went to Canada at the end of 2008. We then worked and travelled in Canada and the US for about 8 months before heading home to finish university. After graduating university, Cameron as a secondary English and Social Science teacher and Cassie as a human services worker, we worked for two years before heading off for our next adventure. This time, we left Australia on Christmas day 2012 and travelled through Europe for 4 months before heading for Central America. We initially intended to travel in Central America for 3 months but ended up staying for eleven. This trip has seen us travel through over 20 countries in 12 months and we are not intending to stop just yet!
