Holidays in Morocco During Ramadan
When we first realized our family trip to Morocco would fall during Ramadan, I’ll admit I felt uncertain. As a mom traveling with kids, I worried about logistics, food schedules, and whether we would unintentionally offend someone. I had questions running through my head: Would restaurants be open? Would my children feel restricted? Would traveling during such an important religious month feel uncomfortable for us as visitors?

Before our first family trip to Morocco, I didn’t fully understand the difference between riads and hotels. I’d heard the words riad, kasbah, riad but wasn’t sure what made them unique. As a mom, I cared most about one thing: what’s actually better for my kids?

The EXplorer
I am a follower of all things Travel and Adventure, my eyes light up at the discovery of a new flight route to Armenia, A camel trek in the Western Sahara or a Windsurfing trip in Naxos. I sometime discover information about destinations so far removed from any known tourist guides that I cannot even pinpoint them on the world map without tracing the steps of previous explorers with some kind of obsessive desire to find the answers. The thought of the unknown is what drives my spirit of adventure, I leave scribbles and notes in diaries about trips and ideas far into the future, even if they are not viable or I never embark on them, but each idea is what inspires and motivates me to keep taking those steps to find what is over the horizon.

Coastal Series: Part I (Washington State)
Washington does not introduce its coastline. It lets you find it... There’s no sudden reveal, no postcard moment engineered for the windshield. The coast arrives gradually, in pieces... Through rain-darkened trees, through logging towns that never rebranded themselves, through long stretches of road where the radio fades, and the sky lowers itself closer to the ground.

When the Sky Decides: The Invisible Power of Weather. AI-Generated.
Every day begins with a simple habit: checking the weather. Whether through a phone app, a glance out the window, or a morning news update, météo quietly guides our decisions before we even realize it. We choose our clothes, plan our journeys, and set expectations for the day based on what the sky promises. Yet weather is far more than a practical concern—it is an invisible power that influences how we live, feel, and adapt to a changing world.
