All of my senses were over stimulated by the sights and sounds of all the organized, eclectic chaos of old Marrakesh. After spending several days in Marrakesh, I was ready for a slower pace of life. Enter, Essaouira. In comparison to Marrakesh, Essaouira is a small coastal city and it’s a perfect place in which to unwind. My first time trekking the desert, we rode camels through nightfall as we reached our campground and by the end of the trip I wish I would have taken home a tagine.
