We've sold our house in San Francisco, said goodbye to family and friends, changed offices, and begun the adventure of living in London. Check in with us often to see what we've discovered, where we've travelled, what's new, and how it has all been.

Marrakesh - Hotel
For the long Easter weekend, TJ planned a trip to Morrocco. It has been on our 'to-see' list since we moved here and we were so excited. We stayed in Marrakesh, in a traditional Riad - the Riad Farnatchi.
The room was lovely, with a big sitting room, interior balcony and roof-top breakfast and lounge area. We were treated to plenty of Morroccan mint tea, tasty cookies, and experienced a traditional Hammam. We heard the daily call to prayer from the various Mosques as they created a musical round of various pitches and volumes.
We peppered our trip with both sight-seeing and adventures and evening glasses of crisp Moroccan wine and game-playing on the roof during sunset.
It was a fantastic 'home-base' to come back to each day, and a true glimpse into this amazing city and culture.
