My Experience in Morocco

My experience in Morocco

At first I was really exited at the chance of going to live in Morocco, but I had many difficulties when I moved there. First, I had problems making friends. It was difficult for me because Moroccane people speak Arabic and French. I was not able to speak those languages at the beginning. Second, the traditional clothes were opposite of what I was used to wearing. Their traditional dress is called Djellaba, it is a long, loose, hooded garment with full sleeves, and women wear Kaftans decorated with ornaments. Third, their religion was not the same as mine, and we shared different views. As in all islamic communities, the call to prayer will be heard with bells several times a day. During the holy month of Ramadam, moslims fast from daybreak until sunset. Non-Moroccan women should be sensitive to traditions concerning dress especially shorts,and skirts are considered provocative and should be avoided in villages. In conclusion, I had many difficulties when I lived in Morocco.
