Liz's Rockin' Moroccan Adventure: December 2008
http://elizabethhague.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Liz's Rockin' Moroccan Adventure. Saturday, December 20, 2008. Najib: Muul a-Taxi/Guardian Angel. Let's start at the beginning. After a fun girl's night filled with junk food and a terrible movie ("The Women"- don't see it),. We rolled out of bed at 5:35 am, and left the house with our 120 some-odd pounds of luggage at 6:10, hoping to catch a cab to the train station for the 7:00 am train from Rabat to Casa. But, holy crap. As we transferred our bags from the platform to the train, I did a mental check o...

Liz's Rockin' Moroccan Adventure: March 2009
http://elizabethhague.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Liz's Rockin' Moroccan Adventure. Sunday, March 8, 2009. Little House of Horrors. Over the past 5 years, I’ve moved approximately 9 times. While every living situation has it’s up and it’s downs, I can confidently say that I have never been overcome with such a profound urge to bolt as I am now. How did I wind up in this mess? You may want to get a cup of coffee or something, because this is going to be a long one. But was able to bit my tongue until after we left the house. But were instead in Der Jamee3.

Liz's Rockin' Moroccan Adventure: "Number One:" Gender, class, and power in a Moroccan film
http://elizabethhague.blogspot.com/2009/08/number-one-gender-class-and-power-in.html
Liz's Rockin' Moroccan Adventure. Saturday, August 22, 2009. Number One:" Gender, class, and power in a Moroccan film. Yesterday was a national holiday, and marked the last day before the start of Ramadan, the holy month where practicing Muslims abstain from food, drink, and cigarettes during daylight hours. Perhaps it was the holiday, or perhaps it was the impending fast, but a lull descended over my normally frenetic host family, and I took the opportunity to watch " Number One. Syndrome. In an end...

Liz's Rockin' Moroccan Adventure: Travel Flashback #1: Visiting the imperial cities with Dad
http://elizabethhague.blogspot.com/2009/08/travel-flashback-1-visiting-imperial.html
Liz's Rockin' Moroccan Adventure. Friday, August 7, 2009. Travel Flashback #1: Visiting the imperial cities with Dad. Today, I resolved to update this blog. I am perpetually shamed by friends who write way more diligently than I do, and by family and friends who request updates. I have no real excuse, except that the more time passes, the more overwhelmed I become. I am falling into the black hole of blog back-entries. Once in Fes, we made our way to the Hotel Batha, located right outside the medina and ...

Liz's Rockin' Moroccan Adventure: April 2009
http://elizabethhague.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Liz's Rockin' Moroccan Adventure. Tuesday, April 28, 2009. Do I wear the shorts, or do the shorts wear me? I quickly learned that my favorite form of stress relief would not be easy to undertake in Morocco. Living with a host family that watched me with the same hawk's eye they applied to their actual daughters, it would have been completely unacceptable ( hashuma. And then I was off. It's free. The downside? Fast" I'm not, but I still look pretty rad in my shorts, I have to say. This weekend, I ran in a...

Liz's Rockin' Moroccan Adventure: February 2009
http://elizabethhague.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Liz's Rockin' Moroccan Adventure. Sunday, February 22, 2009. B'salaamah, Senoir Qibsh. Perhaps my most memorable in Morocco thus far (and trust me, gentle readers, there have been many), was my experience during Eid Al-Kabir. This year, Eid Al-Kabir. Took place in early December, and so this entry is both cursed and blessed with the gift of time to reflect and ruminate on my experience. While I doubt I can add anything that. So, the facts. Moroccans celebrate Eid Al-Kabir. Here is a photo of my friend Su...
