1494. An A Tough Place to Live

Tuesday, February 26, 2013
Aït Daoud Ou Afa, Souss-Massa-Drâa, Morocco
2 hrs, 5.0 kms



I continue on south to the next town, Ait Daoud . Beyond it is another high cliff… no… not going there… I've got to know when to stop and turn around. Here, once again I find people very friendly, helpful and eager to chat. Luckily I find a store that’s open so I can get some water. I foolishly didn’t bother to buy water in Aguerd, and I’ve been suffering ever since. The Berbers of this region have a reputation for being strongly opposed to intermarriage with outsiders—but they certainly don’t seem opposed to people visiting their land—and speaking to them in Arabic brings a smile, not a frown.
