I'm Moroccan citizen living in Marrakech in Morocco where I work in a guesthouse. I have some years of experience in the tourism field especially in hosting and advising some daily Moroccan living to experience: hammam, sharing food with Moroccan members. I can help about addresses for restaurants as well as give info on buses and train schedules. I'm graduated in French linguistics and literature and speak well English. So, your requests can be in both the two languages.

Q: In your opinion, what is Marrakech’s number one attraction? Submitted By: Hostelworld Moderator on the 7th May 2006 A: The Majorelles Gardens, the Marrakech Museum, the Menara Gardens, the Bahia Palace, the Medersa (previous Koranik school). You discover Marrakech better if you do a hosting option for a guesthouse located in the heart of the city. Like this you can live and see Marrakech's daily life.

Q: What else shouldn’t be missed? Submitted By: Hostelworld Moderator on the 7th May 2006 A: To go for one experience of the public hot bath (hammam); as the Moroccan houses don't have bathrooms or showers different to European's houses or guesthouses, Moroccans go to hammam at least once per week.
