I'm glad they don't allow people to take their pictures. That means they know their value and refuse to be exploited.

What a fantastic thing for an American woman from New Jersey to see the world like this! Young people need options. They don't have to stay put in one place. You are inspiring so many of our youth to expand their horizons. Learning about the world in book form has value, but seeing and doing the learning on your own terms really revolutionizes the educational experience. Thanks for doing this.

JOLLY, you’re absolutely right! I would love for one of the talk shows like Jennifer Hudson or Tamron Hall to have Maryjane on to talk about her fantastic travels. She could also become quite famous and make this her business, because she already films everything. A lot of the Public Service stations would be glad to have her on. Just like the guy who films all his trips to European and is probably a millionaire now, because they pay him to show his travels. Plus Maryjane has such a wonderful connection with folks she’s never even met, as she has that gift! Her videos are already professionally done!😀

The "Berbers" hate to be referred by that term. The Europeans coined that word for them. They call themselves the Amazighs (singular) or the Imazighen (plural).

Myself and my husband visited Marrakech in 2016. Out of all the countries/continents we have visited, this is hands down our favorite! I too was asked if I were Berber and the natives named me Fatima. We absolutely loved this place. the authenticity and knowledge we received was bar none! We visited the tombs and went with a local native to visit the Beber natives and experienced their culture up close and personal! I can go on and on about this trip......((sigh). I highly recommend visiting to embark on the rich culture, Moroccan leather, hammand baths, and authentic stories of the natives!

Berber is viewed by many as a derogatory term and Berbers therefore refer to themselves as Imazighen, or Amazigh people in singular form, which means free men. Most contemporary Berber speakers are now Muslim, due to the large Arab influence and occupation on the Maghreb. Traditionally, however, many Berbers/Imazighen people were also Christians.
