Hey Guys, welcome the the second part of my blog about my trip through Morocco, if you didn't the first part you can see it here .

After Visiting Fatima valley it was time to leave as we had dinner reservation with a local Berber family at their home in a neighboring valley, i say "neighboring" but it was around 120km away up winding mountain roads.

We drove into the village past traditional mud and straw built houses, all with their own clay hammans outside.

The people that live in this valley are self sufficient. Each house has a plot of land just down the hill where the grow their own produce to eat and to trade at the market which is held every other sunday and takes traders around 5 hours to reach on foot.There are very few cars this far out, in fact there is only one car here that acts as a taxi between this and a few other villages.The rest of the time the residence use bicycles and donkeys to get around.
