new beginnings in Fes...
Fes is quickly becoming our new home. We have had a wonderful experience staying in a quaint guesthouse in the old medina. Our stomachs are full of tagines, mint tea, and delectable Ramadan sweets. The students are adjusting exceptionally well to the fasting conditions of Ramadan. This is truly a unique experience to be in Morocco during this time. We began our darija, Moroccan Arabic, lessons today. Although it will be a challenge, all are looking forward of what is to come. I am impressed with how quickly the students are picking up phrases. Tomorrow, the students will be welcomed in to their new homes and spend their first nights with their homestay families...a exciting time for all
