This road trip is getting intense! Todgha Gorge & Aït Benhaddou (Morocco by Motorhome)

After a restful week in the Sahara Desert, we make our way west towards the base of the High Altas. Our route takes us into the spectacular Todgha Gorge for an overnight stay in the small village of Tamtetoucht. Aït Benhaddou is our next stop - a historic ksar along the former caravan route between the Sahara and Marrakesh in Morocco.
As always, we have several interesting, incredible (and some bizarre) experiences along the way.

    Thanks Michael! That little guy was on top form. 🤣 But it seems like a well-organized scam. People from outside 'direct' you to this entrance to the 'kasbah'. No signs outside the door saying it's private.. Afterwards I found a pin on Google Maps where other people complain about the same thing there 🤦‍♂️ But it's all part of the experience I guess.

    What an enjoyable 30 mins, that was excellent guys. I'm kind of glad that I'm sitting here safe in my office watching some of your travels. Those narrow roads were pretty scary. What was the story with that crazy guy who ran towards you on the road ? Did he come out of the camper on front of you ? Was it Moroccan road rage ? That Berber omelet looked so good and that Berber Pizza also. I'm so glad that you found such good vino at such an affordable price. Did that annoying little man actually put hands on you ? I don't think that I would have been as polite and composed as you were Andre. It looked very much like a scam to me. I can only imagine how much time you put into videoing and editing to deliver 30 mins of such high-quality video. For what its worth, you are nailing it. The quality is immense in my opinion. As I've said before I so look forward to each of your videos. They are a refreshing break from my otherwise monotonous life (joking, its not bad...). Stay safe, mind each other and remember that Lisa is the boss.

    Thanks Ronan. Of course Lisa is the boss. She reminds me regularly 🤣 The crazy running guy was very freaky. By chance there were those other campers ahead uf us and they stopped dead in the middle of the road, fortunately in a very slow section. I stopped asap to scope out whats going on. This guy appeared around the front camper and for a momemt I though he has perhaps stolen something and is running away. But the I saw his eyes and he was completely spaced out. He was running straight at us and I just managed to pull to the left in the last moment. He still grazed the back corner of our van but kept going. In the camera I watched him running straight into the (stationary) car behind us and collapsed in front of it. Lisa was a bit freaked out by the whole thing. With tregards to the little man. He actually got pushy - hilarious. I almost couldn't believe the nerve. In retrosepect it seems like a well-organized scam. People from outside 'direct' you to this entrance to the village. No signs outside the door saying it's a private area.. Afterwards I found a pin on Google Maps where other people complain about the same thing happening to them and warning others🤦‍♂Can only imagine how often he gets away with it - many people will be caught offguard. In this case I wasn't completely unprepared as I met someine in Merzouga who told me about it happening to him. That's why I had the camera on. 😒😒 Thanks for the positive feedback on the content. We really appreciate it. ❤❤ As you say it's massive amounts of work and sadly most people have no idea what it takes to film yourself like this if you have now idea what will happen next. But we dont (and cannot) make videos to everyones taste.

    We all have accents, even though we may not know it. I think the more you hear an accent the more familiar you become with it and can recognise the nuances and differences between similar accents. I am a native English speaker (although there are some who would say that I'm still learning) and still struggle to differentiate between the Australian and New Zealand accent. Also, I find the Scottish and Northern Ireland accent very similar. If you are a non-native English speaker I can perhaps see why you might think they sound British but trust me they don't really. And besides, there isn't really a British accent. The South of England accent is very different to the North of England (in fact there are many very different accents from all over England), and its the same for Scotland and Wales. And then you have Northern Ireland if you believe in that fake participant of the the UK. ;-) Now that I think of it, Lisa does sound a little Glaswegian......
