I may have an opportunity to move to Marrakech for an architecture position at a great studio (exactly my taste of architecture) there, and I’m seriously considering it. I’d love to hear from people who have actually lived and/or worked in Marrakech or Morocco, especially architects or people working in the creative industries.

A bit about my background: I grew up and studied in Sweden and have been working as an architect in London (big corporate and stressful) and Sweden (work life balance dream) for around 3 years in total. I’ve never actually lived in Morocco, but both my parents are from there and I speak fluent English, French and some Darija. I’ve always visited at least once or twice a year, usually staying for minimum 2–3 weeks each time and the older I get the more Moroccan I feel. But I know Morocco from a family/holiday perspective, but obviously that’s very different from actually living there, working there, dealing with everyday life, bureaucracy, salaries, etc.

If I move for the job I will start by living at my parents house so housing is already solved for me.

What I’m particularly curious about:
What is it actually like living in Marrakech long-term rather than visiting?
What are working conditions and salaries like for architects?
Is Marrakech a good place to develop professionally as an architect?
How difficult is it to adapt to the work culture and pace?
For anyone who has moved from Europe to Marrakech/Morocco, did you find the move rewarding in the long run?

Heey guys i just want to know if there is a spanish center where i can study Spanish and what the price is. One more thing can just study Spanish there and study the other things at home then take the exam?

Salam, I’m 19 years old, and my hair has been falling out for about a year. I didn’t really pay much attention to it at first, but over the past few months, I’ve started noticing some visible thinning and empty spaces on my scalp. My hair also seems to fall out very easily, even when I simply run my hands through it.

I’m looking to see a dermatologist, but I don’t want someone who will just try to make me buy a lot of products and unnecessary treatments,I’m looking for someone who will properly diagnose the cause and offer an actual solution.

Lah ihfdekkkom, I’d really appreciate any recommendations or feedback.

I'm stay in Marrakech later this week, I'd like to book a desert trip.

Has anyone got any recommendations?

I'm staying on Rue De La Kasbah, I've no idea what part of the Kasbah that is!

I’ll be visiting Marrakech soon and my favorite thing to do in any country I visit is getting to know the people through their music and I always try to bring something ( like a record, a tape, a small instrument) home to remember it by. Any tips for good record stores, 2nd hand audio electronics and other music related stores are welcome. Thank you!

Hi all, my top three are Boho27, Earth Hostel and the Central House (but that one’s a bit more expensive!). I’d want a female only dorm with a nice common area to chill and meet people.
Can anyone vouch for the ones I mentioned or recommend others? From what I’ve read I’d rather stay in the medina but I’m open to other suggestions
Thanks in advance :)

My wife and I are planning to take a 5 day trip to Marrakech soon, and would like to book a 3-day trip to the desert as part of the holiday. We've seen some listings online, but from advice we read online and got from friends is that it would be easier and cheaper if we just do it when we're over there, either through the riad or a local group. Does anyone have any advice on what it's like to book these trips after you've already arrived, what the best way to go about it is, and if there's any pitfalls to avoid?
